Create A Batch File That Runs 3 Other Batch Files
Jul 1, 2011I am trying to create a batch file that runs 3 other batch files. Right now, it works fine using the call command on each other batch file. However, these other batch files take awhile to run. and so the entire process takes a very long time, since each "sub" batch file is run only after the previous one is finished.I was wondering if there is a command or way to start a batch file fro the top-level batch file, then go on and start the next batch file before the previous one is finished. In other words, I want the sub batch files to run in parallel in the background. (similar to the '&' in Unix).

Sep 29, 2011I went thru this with Vista, don't remember what the solution was..when search for a file by typing file name (or partial file-name (or extension)) in search field in folder window.. the results don't tell you where the files arewhat is the purpose of a search functionality if results don't display file-locations???I think in Vista I was able to tell it what cols to display in results (and I think there was one that displayed locations.. why it doesn't default to this I cannot fathom, but well...;-) but don't see how to do this in Win7
View 1 Replies View RelatedSearch And Get Results Based On File Name Only In Windows 7?
May 29, 2012I have followed the instructions to search for files in Windows 7 but have found the process very slow and the results bring up lots of irrelevant files. Find a file or folder. By comparison the search companion on XP was much faster and got more relevant results based on file name. If that didn't work there was the option of searching for text within the file. For example I know inside a folder there is a sub folder with the file I am looking for and I know part of the name. Is there a way to make Win 7 search for results based only on the file name? In most cases that would be a lot simpler. Otherwise win 7 will look in the contents of the file which is a time waster.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWrite Results From 2 Separate Files To One Log File Via .bat?
May 31, 2012I am in need of assistance. I have a batch file that runs nightly to restart machines in a specified list (restartmelist.txt) which works flawlessly. What I am looking to do, is have another file (restartmenames.txt) with a list of usernames, so when I look at the results file, I can not only see the results from each machine, but also whose machine it is. The names correlate in order with the machines. So restartmelist.txt looks like this:
MACHINE1
MACHINE2
MACHINE3
And restartmenames.txt looks like this:
Bob Lastname
Bill Lastname
Jason Lastname
Right now, my log-file writes like this:
.Machine1
.Machine2
.Machine3
What I would like to see, is this:
.Machine1 (Bob Lastname)
.Machine2 (Bill Lastname)
.Machine3 (Jason Lastname)
What I don't know how to do, is call that 2nd file to write the log entries, or if it's even possible. Here is what my code currently looks like:
Code :@ECHO OFFFOR /F "tokens=*" %%A IN ('TIME/T') DO SET Now=%%A>>c:scriptsRestartme.log 2>&1 Echo Restarting of machines STARTED on %date% @ %now%>>c:scriptsRestartme.log 2>&1 Echo.set _=c:scripts

View 3 Replies View RelatedChange A Lot Of Icons With A Batch File?
Nov 24, 2012I've got this folder. In this folder are 643 sub-folders. I want to change the icon of all of those folders quickly, because doing it manually would be horrible.
Each folder has to have it's own icon. Not all the same one.
Currently the .ico's are in a folder with all the exact same name as the folders they need to be matched with. (if I sort by name, they'll all be in the exact same order, if that helps anything)
example: Mainfolder/A/ needs to have icon "A.ico"
So I've been kinda searching around and it seems things like this can (or not) be done with a batch file, and the desktop.ini. Or something..
Batch File To Run MMC As A Different Domain User?
Oct 27, 2010I have a batch file that I used on XP to run an MMC that I created for common management tasks. In the MMC I have the ability to run regedit as a root forest domain privileged user (for remote system registry editing), password resets (using AD) remote computer management, and several web links for common sites the team uses. I did this so it was all in one place and it worked awesome in Win XP. When I run the batch file it reports that the directory could not be found.[CODE]
I have verified that runas is in the same place as in XP, as well as MMC. I have run the batch file with elevate access as well as run the command prompt with elevated access (in fact that was copied from an elevated command prompt). The account I'm running it on has admin rights on the box, though UAC is set, I own both the account this was run from and the "root forest" privileged account, this account is NOT a domain admin.This is all being done on Win 7 Pro in a large enterprise domain environmentthis batch file worked and still works on Win XP in the same environment.

View 2 Replies View RelatedPDF File Association REG Or Batch Script
Mar 3, 2012At work i use 2 different PDF viewing software. One is Adobe for editing and the other is Foxit for quick viewing. They have their pros and cons and so I use them interchangeably.For some work I will use Foxit for several hours at a time and only open something in Adobe on an as needed basis using the right click "open with" context. The opposite is true, for some work I use Adobe for hours and then use Foxit as needed with "open with" context.I want a registry file or some application that will enable me to simply double click on it and KNOW that my file association for PDF is now Foxit (or Adobe depending on what batch or registry file I double click on).I see there is "HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrent Version ExplorerFileExts.pdf" which changes when I edit the file association in control panel. It does update, but I can't manually change the "UserChoice" Progid item. It changes only through file association in control panel.I realize there are some in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT but they don't update when i update it in file association in Control panel.I don't know what to do or where else to look.It is tedious to have to go to the control panel -> file association manually.
View 1 Replies View RelatedBatch File Imitating Keystroke?
Apr 18, 2011Is there a way to create a text file (saving it as .bat probably) which when executed will recreate a keystroke press? The keys I need would include modifiers, precisely shift-alt-ctrl-[letter key here].Some background story for anyone interested: I want to trigger an action in another program each time the computer locks. This program has some kind of event trigger, but it doesn't seem to work correctly with windows user lock in all scenarios. So I set a random hotkey to what I want the program to perform. Then I could through windows task scheduler create a task which triggers on user lock and executes this batch file imitating the hotkey press
