make search and edit batch script faster...

The below script works fine.  Just a little slow.  It is because it is searching so many drives.   but is there a way to make the script 'faster"? Even a second or two would be nice

One thing I should mention is, the "bquest" folder would be located somewhere in the folder %programfiles%.  maybe we can edit this to go directly to that directory first...

@echo off
(for %%i in (C D E F G) do (dir %%i:\*bquest /s /b /ad))>dir_search.txt
for /f "tokens=* delims=" %%x in (dir_search.txt) do (
    if not exist "%%x\keycode" (  
    copy /v /y etkey "%%x\keycode" >NUL 2>&1
    attrib +r "%%x\keycode" >NUL 2>&1
  )
)
