VBS set path variable

[MioKawaii]

I'm trying to learn VBS by converting a CMD file but.................

How do you search for a file and SET the location as a variable in VBS?

For instance CMD:

FOR %%I IN (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:\WhateverFolder\WhateverFile.txt SET WhateverLoc=%%I:\WhateverFolder

Try this it list the first instance of \Windows\System32 then exits the loop

Const Removable = 1, Fixed = 2, CD_DVD = 4
 Dim Act   : Set Act = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
 Dim Fso   : Set Fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
 Dim ChkFolder, Drv, StrD
 Set Drv = Fso.Drives 
  For Each StrD In Drv 
   If StrD.DriveType = Fixed Then 
	If Fso.FolderExists(StrD & "\Windows\System32") Then 
	 Act.Popup "Found The System32 Folder On " & StrD ,5,"Confirm",4128
'/-> Set The Only Found Instance Of Windows\System32 As The New Varible
	 ChkFolder = StrD & "\Windows\System32" 
	 Exit For 
	End If 
   End If 
  Next

This will list all instances of Windows\System32 on the local computer

Const Removable = 1, Fixed = 2, CD_DVD = 4
 Dim Act   : Set Act = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")
 Dim Fso   : Set Fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
 Dim ChkFolder, Drv, StrD
 Set Drv = Fso.Drives 
  For Each StrD In Drv 
   If StrD.DriveType = Fixed Then 
	If Fso.FolderExists(StrD & "\Windows\System32") Then 
	 Act.Popup "Found The System32 Folder On " & StrD ,5,"Confirm",4128
'/-> Set The Last Found Instance Of Windows\System32 As The New Varible
	 ChkFolder = StrD & "\Windows\System32" 
	End If 
   End If 
  Next

This will list the first instance of Widows\System32\Shell32.dll then exits the loop
