Assuming your string is read from a file (test.txt in the example below), JREPL could be used like that: @echo off for /f "delims=" %%i in ( 'jrepl.bat ".*- POE: ([^-\s]+).*- UserID: ([^-\s]+).*" "set \x22POE=$1\x22\nset \x22UserID=$2\x22" /XSEQ /A /F "test.txt"' ) do %%i echo %POE% echo %UserID% pa...

I don't know. If you're sure the network resource is properly shared and existing, something like this might help:

Would it be difficult to just have it replace whatever files are new within the backup and also replace the folder name to have the current date to the day that I run this batch file? Not too difficult. At least not if you do it the other way around (first rename using MOVE because it supports wild...

Oh, I'm pretty sure you've been facing this bug. Look at post #5. Finally you worked around this issue by calling the macro before CHCP 65001. At least that's been my understanding. Hmm...

Give this a go: @echo Off for /f %%i in ('wmic OS GET LocalDateTime /value') do for /f "tokens=2 delims==." %%j in ("%%i") do set "dt=%%j" echo %dt:~4,2%-%dt:~6,2%-%dt:~0,4% pause However, think about how your folder names are ordered as soon as folders from 2023 are getting merged in next year. May...

Since I gained some more experiences in this thread I'm about to refactor a few of the PS macros. There's one thing I'm still wondering though: At the beginning of this thread you told that you've been facing a bug of PowerShell v.5.1 when it gets executed in a UTF-8 environment. From what I've read...

::*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Set "inffile=%wkdir%VNCsetup.inf" echo !inffile! ;I see this in the cmd window echo %wkdir%%FileName% ;I see this in the cmd window just fine ::*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~...

Now that I've taken a closer look at your screenshot it turns out that you have a lot of spaces after the .inf extension.
One of the reasons why you should prefer to

I'd like to see all cmds echo'ed to the window. Is there a way I can see that?

Remove the @echo off. Alternatively update off to on.
Furthermore you can turn it off and on again at any position in your script.

I'm not familiar with UltraVNC. And in particular I'm not familiar with its command line syntax. A quick research in the internet suggests to enclose the path in quotes, like so: /loadinf="!inffile!" Also, in the same source I found that your /Very silent should rather be /verysilent at least withou...

As always - if you update a variable value in a parenthesized block, and you want to access this value in the same block, you will need to enable delayed expansion and enclose your variables into exclamation points rather than percent signs. Proper line indentation helps to recognize whether you're ...

Try something about like that. @echo off (set lf=^ %= creates a line feed, do not alter =% ) setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion set "file=" if not exist "foo.exe" set "file=!file!!lf! ? foo.exe" if not exist "bar.txt" set "file=!file!!lf! ? bar.txt" if defined file ( echo ? The files ...!file! echo ? ....

FORFILES might still be useful if you want to create more C0 characters used in VT processing. In this case take a path which is supposed to not containing special characters. Such like /p "%__APPDIR__%." /m "cmd.exe".

I did not understand, how should I do? Recently you began using FORFILES to create the ESC character. Please don't. If you want to figure out why, rename your script to, say, "test %!&)^.bat" and you'll find the ESC not being created anymore :wink: Instead use for /f "delims=" %%E in ( 'echo prompt...

That's easy. @echo off setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion call :init_fade %fade% 0 1 100 1 %fade% 100 -1 0 1 exit /b :init_fade setlocal DisableDelayedExpansion :: fade the window in or out :: Usage: :: %fade% start end delay :: start percentage of transparency to begin with :: step number of percents ...
