Folder Making

[Starlegionleader]

Hey guys I'm trying to create 5 folders, open folder number 1, create 5 folders in that, open folder number 1, etc, but all I'm getting is 5 folders opened on the desktop and a repeated act of opening folder number 1. This is the code I'm using:

@echo off
set A=1
set B=2
set C=3
set D=4
set E=5
:loop
md %A%
start %A%
md %B%
md %C%
md %D%
md %E%
goto loop


I also tried this:

@echo off
set A=1
set B=2
set C=3
set Changeable=1
start Clonefolder
md %A%
md %B%
md %C%
:loop2
start %A%
md %B%
md %C%
start %B%
md %A%
md %C%
start %C%
md %A%
md %B%
goto :loop2

Help would be appreciated.

Not sure what you're looking for.
Try something like that:

Code: Select all

@echo off
set A=1
set B=2
set C=3
set D=4
set E=5

md %A%
cd %A%
md %B%
md %C%
md %D%
md %E%

What is that good for?

create 5 folders, open folder number 1, create 5 folders in that, open folder number 1, etc

Take some time to think of the logic.

Code: Select all

@echo off
set A=1
set B=2
set C=3
set D=4
set E=5
:loop
md %A%
md %B%
md %C%
md %D%
md %E%
start %A%
cd %A%
pause
goto loop

1. Creates folders 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
2. Opens folder 1.
3. Changes DOS path to folder 1.
4. Loop (now operating within folder 1).
