Looking for a way to show Splash Screen logo
Im looking for a third party utility that can display a logo image before starting the batch file. ABF Splash Screen does this perfectly however the registered version is impossible to get. Splash Screen Machine is also abandoned by the author. Im hoping for an open source app that does this. Anythi...

Re: find command not working as expected
Thanks. I'd like to test it out. But, but I still need to somehow specify the tab key twice in "string 2" Is it sufficient to count the found lines? Untested set /a n=0 for /f %%i in ('mt.exe mediastatus tape0^|findstr /c:"string 1" /c:"string 2"') do set /a n+=1 echo %...

Re: find command not working as expected
Could you show me please? I have no idea how to do that. Im not sure how to do && conditional execution. Lets supposed I first need to check for "Capacity" string from the output. If that's true, then to check whether "write protected :NO" was found or not (from the same ...

Re: find command not working as expected
Hi aGerman, it looks like there is something else wrong. The firststr can't find that string of text either. Is it because there's a tab in between? However, when I copy and paste that string of text; I only get spaces, I dont get a tab. So, if there's tabs there, they are invisible to me. If it is ...

Re: Interactive Remote command execution through wmic
Edit: For whatever reasons, there seems to be some limitations using microsoft's psexec.exe and even WMI. The problems may be either related to permissions/timing during redirected output, etc. My solution.... remote execution with the help of windows scheduler! Command execution is much more reliab...

Re: Interactive Remote command execution through wmic
AGerman, I think that error must come from wmi. Maybe Microsoft's Psexec.exe uses wmi as well? I guess it also very important what's being sent to the remote console that needs to be echoed back. One of the commands I send to psexec has a comma in it. It appears that the wmi command gets confused ev...

Re: Interactive Remote command execution through wmic
Thanks for the quick reply aGerman. I just used finding a file as an example to make things simpler to explain. Since I have your attention, maybe you can still help. I am ultimately trying to to execute commands on remote machines conveniently. I thought psexec would work (System Internals utility)...

Re: Interactive Remote command execution through wmic
In case there's no way to do what I want within wmic, I would like to make something that does it for me; however, I'm still running into a problem... I can't take the result from call :Remoteexec and redirect it to the find command. call :RemoteExec "dir c:\" | find file.txt REM REMOTE EX...

Interactive Remote command execution through wmic
I'm very new to using wmic. I would like to redirect the output of a remotely executed command to my local PC. Currently, I have to write to a temp file located on the remote machine in order to see the result. wmic /node:S8DCAB1 process call create "cmd.exe /c dir c:\ >C:\Windows\Temp\result.t...

Re: How to sort numbers in a text file?
It turned out being easier to just change a single line. Surprisingly this worked! If I wasn't able to find such a quick solution, I would have to abandon using the forfiles command and add more lines of code to take it's place. for /f tokens^=1^,2^ eol^=^"^ delims^=^" %%a in (files.txt) A...

Re: Getting free space of a mapped network drive in GBs
It looks like there might be something wrong with MB conversion. When the original value in bytes is too low, converted MB value is rounded off to a whole number: freespace=5999999 I get 11.01MB's freespace=4999999 The result is 9.00MB's freespace=4494567 The result is 8.00MB's freespace=3599999 The...
