Re: copy a file to all users profile desktop

I think what you meant to say was EVERY user profile. The All Users profile would be just the one profile and that of course would be easy to do. Why not just use the All Users profile instead of copying it to every user profile on the computer. What happens when a new person logs onto the computer....

Re: Batch File to EXE and Hide Files

A quick note. I don't want the files to ever be decompiled or unzipped. I want the EXE to Remain whole. Thanks Again That is all a BAT to EXE converter does. It packages up all your files into a Self extracting archive. When you execute the exe it unpacks the archive and executes your batch file. T...

Re: Batch File to EXE and Hide Files

Sounds like you need a different batch packager. The ones I have used in the past allow to include any additional resource files you need.

Yeah. And since it looks like they are using Vista or 7 the batch file could use the CLIP command to copy the path or file name to the clipboard.

Re: Explorer selection?

You can drag and drop a file onto a batch file. The files you drag and drop onto a batch file becomes its command line arguments so you can access them just like you would if you were launching the batch file with a command line from the cmd prompt. @echo off echo This is the path of the file: %~f1 ...

Re: run a (16-bit) .COM executable that has been renamed

Re: run a (16-bit) .COM executable that has been renamed

I'm trying to run a couple of 16-bit legacy DOS programs from a standard windows XP dos prompt. The problem is that the file extensions have been renamed from .COM to .COS and they are stored on read-only media and I can't copy them (special environment). You read but can't copy them? I know we cou...

Re: problems with FINDSTR in multiline search

Your search parameter also has another fundamental flaw.
You are searching for any amount of numbers, then a LF and then a semi colon but your example is number semicolon and then there would be a LF if your file is unix based.
