I've this code:
#echo off
set/p user = Enter your username:
echo Hello %user%
pause >nul
But when I enter any value and press enter, the cmd.exe output doesn't show me the value.
Any help?
You cannot have a space between your variable and the equal sign.
It must be:
set/p user= Enter your username:
Note that user= does not have a space.

When I try to run
netsh -c interface ipv4 add neighbors “Wi-Fi” “192.168.1.1” “00-24-36-A0-A0-61” store=persistent
in a bat file, it comes out as
netsh -c interface ipv4 add neighbors ΓÇ£Wi-FiΓÇ¥ ΓÇ£192.168.1.1ΓÇ¥ ΓÇ£00-24-36-A0-A0-61ΓÇ¥
store=persistent
in cmd. What can I do to fix this so they show up as regular quotation marks?
note: I am just learning bat so if there is something really easy to spot that I'm completely missing, that's why.
For me, it looks like, you are using "Unicode"-Quotations copied out from Microsoft Word.
Copy them into Notepad and replace them by real Quotations '"'.

I try to make a map giving some values, but when I run the command the .bat processing is exited.
This is the snippet of my code:
choice /c k >nul
if %errorlevel%==1 goto mchk
:mchk
if %mn%=10 goto playerlevel
:playerlevel
cls
echo test
pause
Instead of going to playerlevel, the console window gets simply closed.
if %mn%=10 goto playerlevel
Should be
if %mn%==10 goto playerlevel
= is not a valid comparison operator, so your code generates a syntax error and aborts processing. When you use the point-click-and-giggle method of executing a batch, the batch window will often close if a syntax-error is found. You should instead open a 'command prompt' and run your batch from there so that the window remains open and any error message will be displayed.

What is wrong with this code? it is supposed to print hello world
#echo off
set message = Hello World
echo %message%
I wrote it in notepad, and I saved it as first.bat, but when I run it in cmd.exe, it tells me echo is off
Do not add extra space before the equal sign in the set command.
#echo off
set message=Hello World
echo %message%

I have a DAT file that I need to rename and make a txt file. It currently is named PRV4W.SW and I want it to be PRV4WSW.txt. I've tried below but it does not seem to work. Thanks.
ren "C:\PRV 4\20200731\PRV4W.SW" "C:\PRV 4\20200731\PRV4WSW.txt"
ren "C:\PRV 4\20200731\PRV4W.SW.dat" "C:\PRV 4\20200731\PRV4WSW.txt"
Please try
ren "C:\PRV 4\20200731\PRV4W.SW" PRV4WSW.txt
The above command works fine in Win7.
BTW, the new name should not contain [drive:][path]
Please type
help ren
for the usage of the ren command.

I have two numeral values, %Points%, and %PCP1%.
I wish to have something like:
IF (%Points% < %PCP1%) (
cls
echo Not enough money!
echo Hit enter to return home
pause
goto 2
)
ELSE (
echo Confirm Purchase? Your Points after this purchase will be (%Points% - %PCP1%)
pause
)
It doesn't work. Please help. Thanks!
The less than operator is LSS i.e.:
IF (%Points% LSS %PCP1%) (
Other Operators are:
EQU: equal to
NEQ: not equal to
LSS: less than
LEQ: less than or equal to
GTR: greater than
GEQ: greater than or equal to
