What is the command line, within a batch, if possible, to start that batch in Administrator mode?
Or would another batch be needed to trigger this batch in Administrator?

My client asked me to get the programs and data from an old PC.   Its an old 386/486 that defines the tracks, sectors and cylinders in the bios.   (an IDE drive with no partition table).   I tried connecting its drive via USB to a newer PC, but none of the data is visible using windows 7, Windows XP, DOS 6.22, Hiren's boot disk, etc. on the newer PC,  probably because there is no partition table.  Its too much data (over 30gb) to try to copy with 750kb or 1.4mb diskettes and those PCs don't have CD drives.  

I was able to get a sector by sector image copy to a USB drive -- And plan to try to restore it to a newer drive, but I doubt that will solve anything -- since it will probably restore without a partition table.  

Many years ago I used to have all sorts of great DOS based tools for this sort of thing.  Some may still exist in my basement or one of the software archive sites, but at my age, I don't remember which to use or how they worked.   I'm guessing an old pre-Windows XP might be able to read this data and be able to write to a partitioned drive (I don't believe those old versions knew about USB).    

Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,

I have a source file named 'Get_SubVar_Yr.log' that has these three lines:

Processing...
 ALL.Act_Yr=FY18
getsubstvar completed successfully

I'm trying to set a variable equal to the value after the = on the 2nd line.  So my variable named 'theyear' would equal 'FY18'.

for /f "tokens=1,2 skip=1 delims==," %%A IN ("D:\Get_SubVar_Yr.log") DO @echo %%B

Select all Open in new window

I'm not sure how to resolve the 'delims==' part to start.  Is that possible?
Also do/should I need to skip the first line and did I get that correct?
Will the 3rd line hose anything up?
Is For /f   the correct method in the first place?

is there a way to add to the windows credential manager via the command prompt
I'm not referring to cmdkey but the actual windows credential manager apparently they are not the same thing.
When I use cmdkey /generic:TERMSRV/server /user:username /pass:password
it works fine it I run mstsc /v:server  
but if I run it from the desktop by clicking on a shortcut it prompts me for the password; however, if I put the credentials in windows credential manager I do not get the prompt

so, is there a a command to add a username and password to windows credential manager ?
I don't want any user interaction I want to run it through a bat script or psexec or something.
Thanks!

I have a few thousand files and the processed equivalent files in a folder  ( Windows Server 2016 machine).  But there are a  few files which missed the processing
An example list will be
Doc1
Doc1.Timestamp.lck
Doc2
Doc2.Timestamp.lck
Doc3
Doc4
Doc4.timestamp.lck

IN the sample, Doc3 is not processed. How can I get the list of   files not processed  when the list is huge?

Windows Batch file to count a set "N" number of files from a single source folder,merged multiple files together into a single output file that contains <= N number of records, and move processed files to a save directory folder.

Windows Batch file to copy a set "N" number of files from a single source folder to an output file, move processed records to a single save folder.  The single source directory may contain 1 up to a million files.  
Need to copy 200 files at a time to a newfile_N+ that should contain <= 200 files per newfile_N+ until all records have been read and processed.

Input file extension: *.hl7
Output file newfile_N+ extension: *.txt

Source directory - C:\temp\source
Destination directory - C:\temp\output\newfile_N+.txt
Destination directory - C:\temp\processed

For the purpose of demonstration I have attached (5) sample hl7 files.
Each newfile_N+.txt file should contain <= 2 records per file.

Prior to kicking off the batch file.  All (5) source files would be all be in the (C:\temp\source) directory.
Upon completion of the batch program running.  The expected output once the bat file has run would result in the following:

C:\temp\source
      dir: contains no files *.hl7 files
      
C:\temp\output
 dir: newfile.txt, newfile1.txt, newfile2.txt
      Note: Each of these files contains <=2 records each, max is 2 records per file
      ==> newfile.txt …

Once all the files are moved to the destination folders, would like to merge the multiple files per individual destination folder into one single file. (copy *.hl7 newfile.hl7)

File extension: *.hl7

C:\temp\output1
 dir: new 3.hl7, new 4.hl7
 copy *.hl7 newfile.hl7

Hi,

I am searching for a dos command which can cut files from a given folder and paste those files in to an Archive folder which sits along side with the files need to be uploaded into. There are folders with space in its name. I have to insert this command in a bat file. I use below code for my other tasks and its working fine, but it does not do cut and paste, it does copy and paste.

@echo off
setlocal

echo Start Copy

set SOURCE_DIR=C:\Nat\Reports\Reports
set DEST_DIRS="X:\", "N:\Reports\Production Repts\Reports"
set FILENAMES_TO_COPY="2018All Projects_New.xlsx","2017Report_New.xlsx"

pushd "%SOURCE_DIR%"

for %%F in (%FILENAMES_TO_COPY%) do (

    for %%D in (%DEST_DIRS%) do (
        echo file "%%~F" to "%%~D"
        xcopy /Y "%%~F" "%%~D"
    )

)

popd

echo. Done.
exit /b

Thank you

Hi,

I am looking for a script which loads files to SharePoint daily basis. I use windows 10 and 7 laptops. I have created mapped drive to SharePoint on my computers. I was using batch file to migrate data quite successfully. But now I have to migrate data into different folder and links in SharePoint. My batch file(dos commands) is not capable to do that.
