You can also define an asset tag in the BIOS - for example "Remote" - and check for the existence of that asset tag using a WMI query. Or: right before starting your script, connect some random USB stick to this machine that has volume label "Remote" and check for the existence of that (wmic volume ...

Doesn't matter that I put there, it will always be the first non-remark after the label.

So, if you replace this line:

Code: Select all

IF /I NOT "%DoGame:~0,1%"=="Y" Echo %time% Not installing games >>C:\%USERDOMAIN%.PostInstall.Log 2>&1

with:

Code: Select all

echo 123
pause

Your script fails?

This is what I do: - run script with @echo on - On strategic places add code similar to this: PAUSE Start For-Loop1 The PAUSE command will ignore the "Start For-Loop1" part, but it will be shown on the screen, so you know where you are. And more important: it limts the amount of output at a time, ma...

And yet another suggestion: MAIN.cmd @echo off setlocal set RESULT= call Maths :SUM 1 2 echo SUM RESULT = %RETURN% set RESULT= call Maths :MULTIPLY 1 2 echo MULTIPLY RESULT = %RETURN% MATHS.cmd @echo off setlocal set ALLPARMS=%* set ROUTINE=%1 call set PassParms=%%ALLPARMS:%ROUTINE%=%% call %ROUTINE...

"Plan B" (or C?):

Code: Select all


(
echo Get-Service
echo #this is a comment
echo ls
) | powershell -command -

Notes:
- Get-Service without the trailing S
- The & should be inside the scriptblock
- I doubt if scriptblocks are even supported from a CMD prompt.

Next time, please put your output and code between code tags (use the </> button ) That out of the way: Try your code with echo REG ADD .. instead of REG ADD ... to see what's going on. The issue is that it is returning the same result 3 times over for each key with "S/N: That will be caused by the ...

Code: Select all

a new folder is created everyday with previous business day (t-1) as the folder name.

TahnX a lot. Where could i get the file you use? -> "C:\Tools\wakemeonlan-x64\WakeMeOnLan.exe"

nirsoft.net (first hit when you google "wakemeonlan.exe")

BTW: You didn't try my solution?

You have a space character after set AppPath=%UserPath%\Applications and multiple spaces after set SRC=%cd:~0,2% Try it with: set "AppPath=%UserPath%\Applications" set "SRC=%cd:~0,2%" FWIW: My advice: organize per application instead of per system part. Makes it better readable and replacing applica...

This is what I use to connect an off-line NAS to a non-reserved DHCP address. The intersting part for your case is the following line: for /f "usebackq" %%x in (`arp -a ^| findstr /i "%MAC%"`) do set IP=%%x .. but in case you want to use it for something similar as I did (waking up NAS, getting IP-a...

Use a scheduled task?

Eureka!

Try it without the ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION as that uses ! for variables (like %): @echo off setlocal for /F "usebackq delims=" %%A in ("test_file.txt") do ( call :ACTION "%%A" ) endlocal exit /b %ERRORLEVEL% :ACTION echo. This line is: [%~1] goto :EOF Result: This line is: [TEST != TEST] Note: I also...

What have you tried yourself? And where did that go wrong? If you have Launch folder windows in a separate process enabled: taskkill.exe /im explorer.exe If you have that setting disbaled : taskkill.exe /im explorer.exe /F & explorer.exe The second command could also be used in the first case, but t...
