Here's a batch file utilising powershell:

@Echo Off & SetLocal
For /F "Tokens=*" %%A In ('PowerShell -C "&{Get-Date -f "MM-dd-yyyy-HH.mm"}"'
   ) Do Set "d8ime=%%A"
Echo(%d8ime%
>Nul Timeout 5

I think the requirement is to copy a single file, measure the time elapsed, and then delete the copied file - so they can repeat the task later. Your robocopy command seems to copy folders recursively and move the folders. The original question says 1) Copy a folder from ‘My Document’ to another lo...

RoboCopy will do the Copy Delete and Time Taken. @Echo off SetLocal Set Src=C:\Users\UserName\My Documents\ Set Dst=F:\TEST\ Set Dir=My Folder Set OutLog=C:\Logs\CopyOput.txt REM RoboCopy "%Src%%Dir%" "%Dst%%Dir%" /E /MOVE /LOG+:"%OutLog%" /NC /NFL /NDL /NP RoboCopy &qu...

foxidrive, the opening post stated that there are other files in the directories too, not just a single file with a zip extension so as squashman alluded to you may have needed to add *.zip before closing your first 'for' command.

Compo

Here's something which may help your learning: @Echo Off SetLocal EnableExtensions DisableDelayedExpansion Rem Setting desired extension Set _ext=.zip Rem Ensuring that we are working from the script directory PushD %~dp0 Rem Checking the source location Echo( Searching %~p0 for Directories containi...

So we've now established that when you stated XXX you meant zip. Okay what about the directory structure, based upon what you've said, I'm assuming all directories are only a single level and not nested several levels within each other. What about the base Operating Systems, Windows 95, 2000?

Compo

Try giving us the specifics now then, (the search will not be affected as it will be based upon that which you've already posted).

I'm intrigued, are the files embroidery designs, digital CCTV recordings or photo album panoramas?

If you wanted something a little more simple to follow which adds a little protection here is an example of your last posting with that: @Echo Off & SetLocal EnableExtensions Rem Setting and Checking Variables Set RomLocn=F:\emulators\mame\roms If Not Exist "%RomLocn%\" (Echo=%RomLocn%...

I know this is now 5 days old but since you are running 8.1, this is what I use to force the end user to right-click when running as a non-admin, if admin it will just continue on. ~DP 8) :: ### AdminCheck reg query "HKU\S-1-5-19" >NUL 2>&1 && ( goto admin ) || ( <SNIP> I reme...

@Echo Off & SetLocal

Remove the first six and last six characters on the last line if you are happy with the result in the console window!

The location of those files are H:\Neals Personal\. So what i was really trying to do was every night i want to delete a backup folder that is a day old. Please be more specific, are you deleting files which begin with Test located at "H:\Neals Personal"? or are you removing a directory b...

Compo

Regardless of the above, there is one thing which appears quite obvious to me...

Do you really want to use a command named FORFILES to work with a DIRECTORY and then use DELETE as opposed to ReMoveDIRectory on it?

Compo

Thanks Compo i understand i can use this work with change registry value,but i need change (Control) value in gpedit.exe there is no way to control value in gpedit.exe Please try and explain to me the reason why using the registry to toggle a group policy value is not acceptable.

You could use the registry, (Ref: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd939844(v=ws.10).aspx).
Example:

Code: Select all

@Echo Off & SetLocal
(Set _PWU=HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsUpdate)
Reg Add %_PWU% /V DisableWindowsUpdateAccess /T REG_DWORD /D 0 /F >Nul
