clicking on the red x,

Right, I missed that one. Thanks for your explanation, Steffen!

I probably missed or misinterpreted some clues here, but shouldn't this be enough? : @echo off setlocal If /i [%1] == [APE] goto :APE ::__________________________________ :: :: WATCHDOG ::__________________________________ :: TITLE Do not close this!! Echo this is the watchdog routine. Don't close t...

You forgot to create a VOLUME in your diskpart script

Take a look at the explanation of delayed environment variable expansion (command: SET /?) CMD reads FOR ... ( ...) as a single line and all variables will be expanded all at once when reading that entire line. Example: This will only echo the same time multiple times (= the time when the command wa...

The first command: CMD kicks of WMIC.exe so that will be a child process of CMD. The first command searches for that specific WMIC process and reports it's parent-process ID (that is the ProcessID of CMD.exe) The second command: This one reports all child-processes of CMD.exe (and checks if conhost...

I no longer have Terminal installed, so can't test, but checking for child-process conhost.exe of the current CMD.exe should do it? + T:\>wmic process WHERE "CommandLine like 'wmic process WHERE \"CommandLine like%%'" get ParentProcessId /format:list ParentProcessId=2956 + T:\>wmic process WHERE "Pa...

Your description of how g.bat works is basically correct, except the third line with "my" would also be found since somewhere in the database of folders, that "my" folder is also going to be at the end of the line, like "one/more/my". You can also use / or \, so if you were looking to go to "projec...

Just stumbled upon another option, posted on a different forum : WCD
It is modeled after NCD (Norton's Change Directory) with lots of options.

Just reporting; no experience with it (yet)

I'm getting between 60 and 80 seconds for a million rows for this, likely because two set statements are being run every single iteration. Thanks for testing (and writing the code, of course)! Lesson learned: Comparing variables is "cheaper" than setting variables. Good to know! [...] Clever!! :thu...

In my tests, it saved about 2-3 seconds on a million-line file, so I don't think they'd see any benefits on their side, unfortunately. Thanks, @ShadowThief! Inspired by @Aacini's solution, some pseudo-code as I dont have the time and experience to convert this to proper code: Instead of month n=1.....

Purely out of curiousity ... Would replacing this: FOR /F "skip=1 USEBACKQ tokens=1-2 delims=|" %%a IN ("test.txt") DO ( SET "MONTH=!month_val[%%~b]!" with: FOR /F "skip=1 USEBACKQ tokens=2 delims=|" %%a IN ("test.txt") DO ( SET "MONTH=!month_val[%%~a]!" make the code any faster? (it would save on s...

The only thing done is counting the number of lines containing the string ":\". In that case, you might "get away" with using find /c instead: for /f "usebackq tokens=2 delims=:" %%x in (`find /c /i ":\" "list.txt" `) Do echo COUNT=%%x (the /i is not needed in this case, but was added on auto-pilot...

Thanks, that looks pretty useful! I’ll have a go. If you are also going to use Everything [1], you might be interested that it has an option Replace forward slashes with backslashes . So you can search for - for example - /windows [1] I have yet to encounter someone that doesn't like Everything aft...

Long ago I wrote something similar (batch only) Deleted it as I now use something better (my opinion, of course) as the batch-only version was too slow to my liking. This was the idea behind it (re-created from memory, so I might be off here and there). Mainly to give you some extra ideas: @Echo off...

Another approach: @echo off setlocal set OUTPUT=output.txt set line1="<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>" set line2="<gpx>" set line3="<trk>" set line4="<trkseg>" rem set line5="<trkpt lat="46.361004" lon="-1.180605">" set line6="</trkseg>" set line7="</trk>" set line8="</gpx>" (for /l %%x in (1...
