I just noted that you are creating test.tmp but you are deleting temp.tmp Good eyes! Thanks. Anyway I get same results (within a hundredth of a second). Here is the correct code: @echo off echo TEST>test.tmp echo %time% del test.tmp>nul 2>nul echo TEST>test.tmp echo %time% if exist test.tmp del tes...

Hi all! I would like to measure which command is faster: @echo off echo TEST>test.tmp echo %time% del temp.tmp>nul 2>nul echo TEST>test.tmp echo %time% if exist temp.tmp del temp.tmp echo %time% Result: c:\test.cmd 19:42:03,46 19:42:03,46 19:42:03,46 c:\ I would say del temp.tmp>nul 2>nul is faster ...

Do all the other lines get echoed to the log file? Also, you may want to get rid of that setlocal that's seemingly there for no reason. This might be the reason. This setlocal erases the variable 'logfile' and it is displayed on the screen instead. Maybe you could add echo LOGFILE=%logfile%_ Saso

Thanks.

You can try and use sdelete.exe from Sysinternals (https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sys ... elete.aspx). It returns to 'cmd' when it completes.

I finally managed to do some tests with COLORSHOW.EXE. Looks great! I have this problem: @echo off echo. echo. echo. set part1= &rem set part2=1&rem set part3= ł== ł 6 5&rem these characters are 0xB3 (vertical graphic bar in CP852) echo %part1%%part2%%part3% colorshow.exe /07 "%part...

Can it help if you delete ".bat" from the string first and then add it?

That is what I was trying to say - the method to create your executable files is complicated and needs too many steps. Why not create a single script for each binary? Do other readers have any opinion about this? Please chime in if you agree with me. I agree with you on this, Foxi. I really like Aa...

Aacini thanks alot. Completely different approach. Works great!

Thanks again.
