Check the permissions / user context under which the file is running in Task Manager. &nbsp;Assuming it isn't under the same permissions you are connected to the desktop, try opening up a cmd session as the other user (Control-Shift-rightclick -- 'run as different user') and see if the batch file works as expected as the other user. &nbsp;Could be permissions or a directory that doesn't exist in the other user context.

Batch files are text files containing a script of commands that are executed by the command interpreter on DOS, OS/2 and Windows systems. Most commonly, they are used to perform a series of functions that are repeated -- copying a set of files created daily with one step, for example.

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
