BAT File to Run 3 Programs

Sponsored Links

I'm trying to create a BAT file to run 3 programs and I can't get it
to work. Here's my current code:

@echo off
start "C:\Program Files\PhraseExpress\phrase.exe"
start "C:\Program Files\MemInfo\meminfo.exe"
start "E:\Software\ultra-cpu-monitor_eng\ultra-cpu-monitor.exe"

When run, I get a Command Prompt box, with the path/file name at the
top, with the command at the directory where the BAT file is, and the
programs do not open.

Any ideas how to get this to work? Thanks for any help.

start "Title" "C:\Program Files\PhraseExpress\phrase.exe"

All Dos COMMANDS... For Batch files Click the ( B )
Man I used to know all these Commands in the 80's Before windows .

Thanks very much. I had seen the "title" in my search for help but I
thought it wasn't required. I should have tried it. Problem solved!

hi. i am having a similar problem.
i want to make a batch file that just copies a folder from my network onto my local disk. heres the code im running,

@echo off
f:\
cd\apps
xcopy *.* c:\apps /s

when i click on the bat file nothing happens.
thx in advance

Test it - troubleshoot it...
Open a command prompt and run it from the command prompt and don't put in
the @echo off until you get it working.

Or try each line in a command prompt one at a time - if it doesn't work
there - it is not going to work in a batch script.

also...

xcopy f:\apps c:\apps /e /i /h /r /g /c /k /x /y

That should copy everything from f:\apps to c:\apps (creating c:\apps if it
does not exist, copying everything including all subdirectories from
f:\apps, continuing on errors, copying the permissions and even encrypted
files that it comes across and answering any questions to the
affirmative...)

You will need to choose the option, Save As to save this file with .bat extension. For example filename.bat. Now Right- click on Start button and choose open > Double click Programs > here open Startup folder. Now drag your .bat file in the Startup folder and close the dialog box. You won't see the batch file run because you told it to run minimized.
