hi,

my unattended cd works fine, except for one thing.

there are accents in some wallpaper filenames and when trying to delete them in the main_batch i get errors and the files aren't deleted.

this only happens for files or filepaths containing accents like é è ê .... i.e :

DEL "%systemroot%\Web\Wallpaper\Choeur d'étoiles.jpg"

typing the same line works fine in the xp command prompt though. any idea ?

thanks

try

DEL "%systemroot%\Web\Wallpaper\Choeur~1.jpg"

instead of

DEL "%systemroot%\Web\Wallpaper\Choeur d'étoiles.jpg"

simple method for other files:

-open a command window (cmd.exe)

-go to the directory

-type 'dir /x'

-remember the 8.3 name and use it in you batch

Salut :)

En fait c'est simple, tu laisses toujours les 6 premiers caractères de ton fichier ensuite tu rajoutes ~1 puis l'extension (.jpg) qui doit être de 3 caractères et non 2.

Ainsi msnforum.bmp devient msnfor~1.bmp

D'ou le terme 8.3 : 8 lettres avant et 3 après.

thanks Westi, i didnt know about dir /x, it works fine now

squallgreg :

en fait il vaut mieux utiliser la methode dir /x car par exemple Choeur d'étoiles.jpg

n'est pas Choeur~1.jpg mais Churd'~1.jpg sous dos ... :)
