I got my batch file to open cmd prompt and change directory successfully, however what I cannot get to work is after the directory has changed I want the batch to then to enter a string as a command.
I've tried cmd /k string but that didn't seem to work, the cmd just sits at the changed directory. I've also tried:
set Opvar= echo string
%Opvar%
Again it just sits at the last changed directory. The batchisp line that's commented out is what the string is that I want to act as if I typed the whole string and pressed enter at the current directory prompt.
Here's the whole thing:
#Echo OFF
FOR /F "Tokens=*" %%# IN ('Reg Query "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\ProfileList" ^| FIND "-1000"') DO (
FOR /F "Tokens=2,*" %%A IN ('Reg Query "%%#" /v "ProfileImagePath" ^| FIND /V "%%#"') DO (
set drive=%%B
Echo Admin SID: %%~n#
Echo Admin Folder: %%B
)
)

You are changing the working directory in a new instance of CMD (CMD /K), use PUSHD to change the working directory in your current CMD instance and POPD to return to the last used directory:
#Echo OFF
PUSHD %WINDIR%"
Echo I'm on "%CD%" Directory!
POPD
Echo I'm on "%CD%" Directory!
Pause&Exit
Change your code to this:
:Option3
echo Starting OpCon DFU flash...
xcopy "%~dp0M1k_SWPCB\SWPCB\*.*" "%drive%\Desktop\SWPCB\" /d /s /h /v /c /f /k /y
PUSHD "%drive%\Desktop\SWPCB\SWPCB\Debug"
batchisp -device at32uc3a0512 -hardware usb -operation erase f memory flash blankcheck loadbuffer SWPCB.elf program verify start reset 0
POPD
goto :End
...Or if you want to start directly the command in a new instance of CMD change it to this:
CMD /k "Start /W """" "%drive%\Desktop\SWPCB\SWPCB\Debug\batchisp" -device at32uc3a0512 -hardware usb -operation erase f memory flash blankcheck loadbuffer SWPCB.elf program verify start reset 0"
PS: Remember that you don't need to change the working dir to start an app, you can write the path followed by the process name like in my last example.

I have problem. All working on local machine but when use psexec i get error.
This is scrap of my .bat file
psexec.exe \%pc% cmd.exe /k for /f "tokens=2 delims=:" %%g in ('certutil -verifystore My ^| findstr /i "serial"') do echo %%g
On local cmd all its work but on remote i get error:
"At this point | was unexpected"
Could you help me?
Correct part of code
(...) in ('"certutil -verifystore My | findstr /i serial"') do (...)
I am trying to create a batch file that will run and open a Powershell script to then run.
this is what i have so far
#echo off
for /r C:\folder %%a in (*) do if "%%~nxa"=="2WNRN4VMS2.txt" set p=%%~dpnxa
if defined p (
echo %p%
) else (
echo File not found
Pause
)
Powershell.exe -Command "& '%p%'"
exit
That is very simple using command DIR for searching for the file recursively in folder C:\folder and all its subfolders and command FOR for assigning the drive and path of found file to an environment variable:
#echo off
for /F "delims=" %%I in ('dir /A-D /B /S "C:\folder\2WNRN4VMS2.txt" 2^>nul') do set "FilePath=%%~dpI" & goto FoundFile
echo File not found
pause
goto :EOF
:FoundFile
Powershell.exe -Command "& '%FilePath%'"
Please note that the string assigned to environment variable FilePath ends with a backslash. Use in PowerShell command line %FilePath:~0,-1% if the path of the file should be passed without a backslash at end.
For understanding the used commands and how they work, open a command prompt window, execute there the following commands, and read entirely all help pages displayed for each command very carefully.
dir /?
echo /?
for /?
goto /?
pause /?
set /?
I'm a newbie in batch scripting. How can i add a currentdate on the filename once i move the files to other directory? Can you please check my code below? Thanks!
This is how it works:
-- I need to copy some files to other directory in order to kill the running processes which are (dsst)
-- once the dsst is not running, it should stop the GESWCPAServer and delete the copied files in c:temp
-- Next, copy the logfiles from C:\LOGFILES to C:\LOGFILES\Archive.
-- after the files has been copied. it will now start the services.
Thanks!

Cheers, G
I have a batch file I would like to search a folder for any xlsm file updated today.
If it finds an xlsm file from today, it then runs another bat file. If there is no updated file it should run a .vbs file (to send an email) and then exit.
Currently I have the following:
#echo off
set var=%date:~-10%
dir "*.xlsm"|find "%var%">nul&&CALL Update.bat||EXIT
I think I probably need to include some sort of IF/ELSE instead of the current method, but my skills are lacking..
EDIT:
The actual solution I've gone with, based on the answer from #Monacraft is:
#echo off
forfiles /p C:\ /m *.xlsm /d 0 /c "cmd /c call Update.bat"
if ERRORLEVEL 1 start FailEmail.vbs
If using windows 7 you could do forfiles:
#echo off
set found=FALSE
forfiles /p "C:\...[path to folder]" /m *.xlsm /d +1 /c "cmd /c Echo Updating...&CALL Update.bat&set found=TRUE"
if /i %found%==False (
start email.vbs
) else (
Exit
)
And that should work fine
Mona
This worked for me:
#echo off
forfiles /p C:\ /m *.xlsm /d 0 /c "cmd /c call Update.bat"
if ERRORLEVEL 1 start FailEmail.vbs
I think your code should work - some small changes here.
It will just echo the commands to the screen, for you to test.
One point to consider is that the DIR command will also match *.xls files in the short name.
#echo off
set "var=%date:~-10%"
dir "*.xlsm"|find "%var%">nul && (echo CALL Update.bat) || (echo start failemail.vbs)
pause
I have a batch file which loops through a content of a text file and copies a specific file using xcopy command.
here's the snippet.
for /f %%a in (FilesToCopy.txt) do (
xcopy ..\..\Common\%%a Common\%%a /i /d /c /v /s /y /f
xcopy Common\%%a ..\..\Common\%%a /i /d /C /v /s /y /f
)
%%a contains values like
Images\image1.jpg
Images\image2.jpg
so when xcopy is executed it would look like
xcopy ..\..\Common\Images\image1.jpg Common\Images\image1.jpg /i /d /c /v /s /y
upon execute it would then prompt this message
Does Common\Images\image1.png specify a file name
or directory name on the target
(F = file, D = directory)?
it seems that the /i command doesn' work or i am missing something here to suppress the message above.
Well, you left out the second statement the help gives about /I:
/I If destination does not exist and copying more than one file,
assumes that destination must be a directory.
You are only ever copying one file at a time, so /I doesn't apply.
You can probably hack-solving this by piping F into the command and suppressing output:
echo F|xcopy ..\..\Common\%%a Common\%%a /i /d /c /v /s /y /f >nul
(Won't work on non-English versions of Windows; but probably that's the least of your problems, given that the batch already fails for file names with spaces :-))
You could try building a single long list of file names to copy:
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion enableextensions
set LIST=
for /f %%a in (FilesToCopy.txt) do set LIST=!LIST! "..\..\Common\%%a"
xcopy %LIST% Common /i /d /c /v /s /y /f
This requires two passes over the initial file, though. And it fails when the list of file names gets longer than 8190 characters.
The destination should be a path, then it won't ask:
xcopy ..\..\Common\Images\image1.jpg Common\Images\ /i /d /c /v /s /y
In your case, you can use path extraction with %~p on the destination since you may want to preserve that:
xcopy ..\..\Common\%%a Common\%%~pa /i /d /c /v /s /y
