Autorun CD using Batch file for Multiple Executables

[DANIEL 602]

Hi Friends,
I am new on this forum. I want some help so I am here. I am trying to make an AutoRun CD. Also I have made the inf file that launches a batch file. But it is not working properly. I am using the Windows XP as my operating system. Does anyone out there know how to make an Batch file of the Autorun CD for Multiple Executables.? Hope that I will get the help soon.

An Autorun.inf file is a file that, when placed on a drive (internal or external), will allow the drive to start programs, have a different icon than the standard boring one , and have a different name. The syntax is "option=value". I think that you should make a inf file properly. That inf file should able to launch the batch file. You can use the following for making an inf file that Autorun CD using Batch file for Multiple Executables:

@echo loading cd
@start/wait "formulator software\formulator Setup.exe"
@start formulator.exe
@cls
@exit

If you are having the Windows XP as your operating system, then Windows drivers must have an INF file in order to be installed. An INF file is a text file that contains all the information necessary to install a device, such as registry information, version information, driver names and locations, that is used by the Setup components. The Driver Development Tools provide some tools to assist with writing INF files. So you can use the DDT for making an inf file. Each section of inf contains section-specific entries, which are interpreted by Setup software. Some entries begin with a predefined keyword. These entries are called directives.

I would like to thanks you all for trying to help me.!! As told by 'JonathanD' I tried using the commands that you told me but that doesn't helped me. After using that command a CMD window opens which says loading CD. Then another cmd window (named formulator software\formulator Setup.exe) opens displaying the drive letter D:\>. Also I got "Installation is corrupted" error message. Hope that you can provide me more help.

You have mentioned that I got another code so that the another cmd window opens displaying the drive letter D:\> which is named as formulator software\formulator Setup.exe. I am having another code that worked for me. Also there was no another cmd window opening with any Error message. Here is the code for that :

@start /wait "loading cd" "formulator software\formulator Setup.exe"
@start formulator.exe
@cls
@exit

Since you have stated that you want to be loaded on a CD. You will need to create Autorun.inf file that launches the bat file that launches the exe files. The inf file looks like this :

[AutoRun]
open=autorun.bat
icon=formulator.ico,0
label=formulator Installer

Otherwise you can also try this :

[AutoRun]
open=autorun.bat
WindowMode=Minimized
icon=formulator.ico,0
label=formulator Installer

Hope that one of the above will help to sort out your issue.
