Probably something like that (provided the name of the text file is "test.txt"):

Code: Select all

for /f "usebackq tokens=1* delims=, " %%i in ("test.txt") do >"%%j" type nul
Of course the files are empty. How should we know what content is expected ...

Hi...

I am configuring my portable applications so that windows10 believes that they are installed and so I can set them as default ... everything works very well for me ... but I wanted to make sure that each extension has its corresponding icon

In Adobe Reader there are only 4 different ones and I can create them by hand ... but Office ... Winamp ... VLC ... 7-zip .... there are too many extensions to do them by hand


It's perfect ... just what I needed ... and with a few characters !!! ... you've saved me a lot of tedious work !!
Many thanks!!
