True that, it does link to this topic. Put it here as it was more of a unattend question, but sure, could have continued on. Anyways... Sure there are a couple of ways to solve this, but as im also trying to learn while I make my CD, it's good to know if something like the above is even possible. Now a solution would as you say be something like this. @echo off if exist "%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2" mkdir "%UserProfile%\My documents\Updater" if exist "%ProgramFiles%\Adobe\Adobe Illustrator CS2" if not exist "%UserProfile%\My documents\Updater" mkdir "%UserProfile%\My documents\Updater" if exist "%UserProfile%\My documents\Updater" ATTRIB +H "%UserProfile%\My documents\Updater" exit That way no erros will occure.
