Hi Experts,
How to create multipal users along with password & assign to remote desktop group in Windows server 2008 & 2012 from batch file ?

I need a batch file to install a Window update on a remote machine. I need to have it check if its online, if its not exit out with an error, if its online look for C:\Temp, if its not there create it. Then copy over the file to C:\Temp and run the file using psexec.exe.

The reason why we are doing it this way is because SCCM is not working for us and NO we cannot use other deployment software. I am however allowed to use a batch file or script.

We run PSEXEC often to distribute software and icons.  I was wondering if there was a way or a script that I could run to check and make sure my Icon got installed?  These are for both windows 10 and windows 7

When I run this statement, I get an error that says "%%G was unexpected at this time":
for /F "tokens=2 delims==" %%G in ('WMIC /NODE:"myserver" Service WHERE "Name = 'myservice'" GET State/value') do set CURSVCSTATE=%%G

But, when I run just the WMIC statement, it works fine:
WMIC /NODE:"myserver" Service WHERE "Name = 'myservice'" GET State/value

I'm pretty sure it has to do with the single quote terminating the WMIC command to early, but I can't figure out how to fix it!

if exist z:\
	If Exist Y:\
		If Exist X:\
			(net use w: https://d.docs.live.net/Drive /user:UserPassword)
			TIMEOUT 10

			Copy %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\COMPANY-Audit_%COMPUTERNAME%.zip w:

			TIMEOUT 10

			Net use w: /Delete

			Else (net use x: https://d.docs.live.net/Drive /user:UserPassword)
			TIMEOUT 10

			Copy %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\COMPANY-Audit_%COMPUTERNAME%.zip x:

			TIMEOUT 10

			Net use x: /Delete

		Endif

	Else (net use y: https://d.docs.live.net/Drive /user:UserPassword)
	TIMEOUT 10

	Copy %USERPROFILE%\Desktop\COMPANY-Audit_%COMPUTERNAME%.zip y:
	TIMEOUT 10

	Net use y: /Delete
	Endif
			
else (net use Z: https://d.docs.live.net/Drive /user:UserPassword)
TIMEOUT 10

Select all Open in new window

So what i'm trying  to do is check if drive mappings exist, if they do move to the next drive mapping and check that. Etc etc.

Can't seem to get it to work quite right, Batch scripting isn't my strong point unfortunately.

Thanks

I am trying to create a task (in task scheduler) to execute a vbscript file. Task Scheduler successfully completed but the vbs script is not creating task file. But when I manually run the .vbs task file is create.

@echo off
cscript //nologo c:\xxxx.vbs
exit

Task Scheduler successfully completed task "\xxxx" , instance
"{355a1874-adfa-499d-bee7-25e3d4e2b7db}" , action
 "C:\Windows\System32\cscript.exe" with return code 0.

Hi,
So I am in the middle of changing a scheduled tasks account that it runs under as the current ones password is changed monthly.
I have added the account to the same groups for permissions as the previous account.

The basics of the script are:
Connect to FTP
Download files
Rename files
Move files
Archive files

Now when i run a test on the script it is for some reason it was unable to see the txt file that connects to the FTP account, i have to edit the command to point the script to the full path location "C:\tempfiles\ftpscript.txt" instead of it previously using "\ftpscript.txt", then it is also downloading the files into my documents and not the directory that it was downloading to before "C:\tempfiles"

It is as if the cmd prompt looks to different locations when run under those different accounts? I am not sure why it is now downloading in that location when it ran fine before. I think the only difference between the 2 accounts are that the previous account was the built in domain admin account and this is a new account we created which is also a domain admin account.

Script below:

:: Download all files via WINSCP
"C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP\winscp.com" /script=ftpscript.txt

:: Rename files
cd: "c:\tempfiles"
ren p3de* "temp file1"
ren p3tr* "temp file2"

:: Move files
COPY C:\tempfiles\* \\REMOTESHARE\SHARE\SHARE\*

::Archive files
MOVE "C:\Tempfiles\*.* "C:\tempfiles\archive"

Now so far i have amended the download command to …

Trying to get a complete list of installed programs.
Using this command gives me partial list: wmic /output:"C:\software.csv" product get "Description","InstallDate","Name","Vendor","Version"
Using this gives another partial list: reg query HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall /s | find "DisplayName" > C:\InstallList.txt

Also "reg query" won't seem to get all the values desired as in the "wmic" command.

How to create a batch file to install an .exe file with administrative privilages?

Hello experts,

I am looking for a BAT files in order to list in a List.csv files, files, folders path and size.
First column: Path of File or Folder
Second column: report if the line reported in first column is a FILE or a FOLDER
Third column: size related to FILE or FOLDER

In the BAT file I should report the folder where are located the various files and folders to report in List.csv
BAT files should drill down the various subfolders.
