Hi, I have a short code line that would ask elevated privileges for a Batch file. But now I noticed that if a file name or a folder name has an "&" character in it then the code will not work. 😫 Dose anyone have a solution for this problem? 🤔 @ECHO OFF FLTMC >NUL 2>&1 || PowerShell Start-Process -FilePath '%0' -Verb RunAs >NUL 2>&1 && EXIT /b FLTMC >NUL 2>&1 && GoTo EVD ECHO I'm not wokring. PAUSE :EVD ECHO Hallo World. PAUSE

Hello citizens of msfn! I want to announce a small program that I will be launching soon called cmd64! It is a new and simple cmd / terminal with extra features, standalone and non-dependent of the Windows Operating System or cmd! (other than some path variables) I will post a screenshot soon, as I will get to compile the first version, using C#, C++ and batch to make, cmd64.exe . thank you for reading this

Hello, I have a problem running a batch file I'm creating for Windows XP. At some stage it has to check whether a service is running or not. Let's assume that I type in the following command directly into a command prompt: for /f "tokens=3" %H in ('sc query Spooler ^| findstr "STATE"') do echo %H It runs flawlessly and outputs 1 or 4, depending on a service state. The problem starts when I put this command in a batch file, suitably modified by doubling % signs: for /f "tokens=3" %%H in ('sc query Spooler ^| findstr "STATE"') do echo %%H or any other for /f loop where sc is a command to process - even sc alone in a loop. When processing the command, cmd.exe processes start to multiply indefinitely and the batch execution hangs. I've tried both XP HE and Pro, English and Polish variants. Also, there is no such problem under Windows 8. For what I've checked, this issue only applies to sc - any other command I've tried in a loop ran without a problem. This command alone: sc query Spooler ^| findstr "STATE" also runs without a hassle. Has anyone encountered such a behavior? Any ideas? Regards.

Hi there, I like to install Windows XP SP3 with all the updates, so I can sit after the installation and just have a cup of coffee... instead of waiting to get the updates one by one using Windows Update or Microsoft Update. But for the last few months, I've updated my XP ISO just by adding the hotfixes using a batch called 'adiciona.cmd', being this one called at the end of RunOnceEx.cmd. The file is growing and being too annoying to edit every time I have to update the ISO, so I decided to request help from you, to get all the updates 'slipstreamed' or, at least, installed earlier - using the RunOnceEx.cmd, for instance. So here are my two files to you to consider: adiciona.cmd @echo offcmdow @ /HIDnet user aspnet /deletefor %%i in (C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z) do if exist %%i:\win51ip.SP3 set
