Hello,
How to get the current folder name (not the full path) ?

In other words, how to get the last part of a string like
C:\folderA\folderB\folderC
using the bachslash delimiter "\"

Thanks.

Thanks so much, it helps me.
I used it in this srcipt, to archive the folder contaning the BAT script:

Folder2RAR.bat

Code: Select all

FOR %%a in ("%CD%") DO SET CurFol=%%~na
CD..
WinRAR a "%CurFol%.RAR" "%CurFol%"

and I can use the same BATCH file for any folder.

Thank you.
