Just double checked and they're all .bat and .cmd

I'm working in the command prompt and driving to the appropriate drive and pasting the code in there and it just closes. when my command prompt looks like this E:\> I am pasting judago's code I tried pasting your code @echo off setlocal set "B=%~1" echo %B% B call judago-divide %B% 1024 K ...

Thanks, that seems a lot more in-depth than I was thinking. I'd just like to divide !G! by 1074? So what don't you understand about 32 bit integers. The example you provided is larger than the largest 32 bit integer that SET /A can handle. You have two choices. You either use the code I provided to...

Hello, I am using a script to find the available bytes on a drive and spit it out into a .txt file. As I understand it math functionality is limited but I am wondering if there is a way to divide the answer I'm getting.

I appreciate all your tips. This is the first Batch file I have created, I am really enjoying the process and when things do exactly what I want them to, I want to scream and shout and show everyone how awesome this is (I don't think I'll ever get used to that). I'll definitely remember to give as m...

It places an empty line at the top and on the second line

the free space issue could be solved if there is a way to do simple math on !free! by dividing it by 1073741824?

[1] Title 1
[2] Title 2

I'm almost there. It won't let me select a title from my Title.txt file that's on my c drive in the same place as my .bat file. It is putting 
~4 at the top, and is there a way to show the free space in GB?

Thank you for your reply. I am trying to list all the information in a txt that is created with the batch onto the current directory. I am trying to list only the folders in the current directory.

Hi. I will start by admitting I love what batch files do but have no idea how they do it. I am trying to modify an existing .bat to do what I wish, but it is more difficult than I anticipated. I am attempting to create a .bat that will write a .txt to the active directory that lists the contents. I ...
