I jsut finished my new unattened xp cd with sp2 and all of the programs i told the batch_file.cmd to run didn't install. It came up with errors for each one saying the .exe file was missing. So I am guessing that they got deleted during the install of xp. Anyway to fix tihs?

If this keeps repating itself then you should try to install your software from the CD

without copying it to your hard drive.But I think you'l have to use the RunOnceEx.cmd method.

I do that and that and it works perfectly.

A bit more info might be helpful...

EDIT: Start by posting your batch_file.cmd. My bet is that you've got the paths in there incorrectly.
