Re: Can't parse arguments to variable
The comparison with your IF line does not work out as you would expect. If you want to know what goes wrong then you have to evaluate the displayed errors. For successful troubleshooting, it has proven useful to switch on the echo and thus to find something in the last displayed lines that leads to ...

Re: Runaway problem with FINDSTR "Line {nnn} is too long"
This is definitely the 2 GB limit. Since nothing can be written into the files with certainty, each file must be considered for itself. A line must be searched for without a line end, and at the same time the error message must be evaluated. You can even calculate how long this line is, for example....

Re: best way to encrypt passwords in cmd files?
Maybe you shouldn't call the variable password.
More like count files or something.
Give the password file restricted / explicit user rights.

Re: Check files GEQ 11000
Hallo Zero0,
Your script does not show how which variables are set, you can only assume that they are set. There is no If Else for either a directory, or in a loop, or recursively.
You can use a for /r loop for this.
Please use Code Tags.

Oh. I also sometimes find some new files after testing at CMD or Batch. but mostly they are empty and should not be there. EG: b 1 .ABC ( %% ~nxf !
