I'm currently working on some batch file that will be deleting all files from selected usb drive. The code works, but i wanted to add second choice to be sure if user is certain that he choose correct drive or so and the second choice is not responding. No matter which option i'll choose it'll somehow delete all files from this point.
I'm new to batch and to programming also
Here's a code:
#echo off
choice /c YN /t 15 /d n /m "Do you want to delete all files from USB drive? Y-yes, N-no"
setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
Set "USB="
if errorlevel == 1 goto ONE
if errorlevel == 2 goto TWO
if errorlevel == 255 goto ERROR
:ONE
for /f "tokens=1-5" %%a in (
'wmic logicaldisk list brief'
) do if %%b Equ 2 if %%d gtr 0 Set USB=!USB! %%a
Echo:Found drive's:%USB%
set /p Drive=Choose drive:
if "%Drive%"=="" goto :ERROR
if not exist %drive%:\ goto :ERROR
if %drive% EQU C goto ERROR
if %drive% EQU D goto ERROR
cd /D %Drive%:
tree
:CHOICE
choice /c YN /t 15 /d N /m "Are you sure you want to delete all files? Y-yes, N-no"
if errorlevel == 1 goto DELETE
if errorlevel == 2 goto TWO
goto END
:TWO
echo "Program was cancelled"
goto END
:DELETE
del * /S /F /Q
rmdir /S /Q %Drive%:
echo "Files are deleted"
goto END
:ERROR
echo "There was an error"
goto end
:END
echo "Done"
pause
Here's an example, which includes a more thorough method of detecting USB drives.

I'm building a menu with this command CHOICE /c 123456789 /N /M "Type your choise"
This is inside a my menu batch script and it calls Tools1.bat it makes everything inside the Tools.bat run with Sub folder reader
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 1 (
#For /F "EOL=? Delims=" %%G In ('Dir /B /S /A:D') Do #PushD "%%G" && (Call "%~dp0Tools1.bat" >NUL 2>&1 & PopD)

ren "%~dp01_Prior_Version\Asset_Database_Cleaned_2.txt" "Prior Version.txt"
ren "%~dp02_Current_Version\Asset_Database_Cleaned_2.txt" "Current Version.txt"
)
I have 2 folders with one file inside each folder
01_Prior_Version
+ -- asset_database_2_09_7_Release
02_Current_Version
+ -- asset_database_3_29_4_Release
the asset_database has random numbers so I use wildcards for that
asset_databaseRelease or asset_database_?__?_Release
These files get renamed to Asset_Database_Cleaned_0.txt
and then I use findstr /i to extract content that I need
I have tried many different ways to add that top script to my menu batch script
I have tried many different ways to add a Sub folder reader using SET & Source etc
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 1 (
#For %%G In ("%~dp01_Prior_Version") Do Set "source=%%~fG"

findstr /i "icon [(0-9)]" %Source1% > %Target1%
ren "Prior\Asset_Database_Cleaned_0.txt" asset_database_9_99_9_Release
I tried using this script, but couldn't put all of that above together

When the script runs, it create another .bat that works together with the main script.
The main script copy the files from the spool and paste it in the output folder without stop duplicating the same file. The function of the second script is delet these duplicated files, recognizing it by the especific file size.
It's working 75% good. Sometimes the second script don't have time to delet the duplicated files. I guess is better merge these two scripts in only one. So it will work better.
Can someone help me how can i do it?
why are the files of the same size?
are these in different folders?
You can do this more easily by using a versioning system.
#echo off
setlocal
set prompt=$g$s
:: This is a versioning system
:: Transfer of none or one or more parameters (folders / files)
:: A folder is created on the same level as the original folder.
:: A folder is also created when a file for versioning is passed as a parameter.
:: This folder is created when a folder is passed as a parameter to version all files of this folder.
:: Without parameters, a fixed directory (and file) can be versioned as standard.
:: A log file is maintained in the versioning folder.
:: Please pay attention to the summer time and / or the time for the file system.
:: The variable rCopyCMD is used to pass other Robocopy options.
:: The versioned file gets the current time stamp as a version feature.

I don't know how should I title my problem but here's what I'm trying to do:
I want to search for duplicates in the directory (which is from the input)
Then get the number of duplicates files
Here's where I'm stuck, if there's is no duplicate files, it should echo out "No duplicate files found", my idea is using >nul|set fileError="No duplicate files found"
I'm confused where should i placed it because I'm looping through the results.
To be direct, if there is no duplicate files [filenames] then it should echo "No duplicate files found".
Here's what I did:
set findFiles=0
for /f %%A in ('FORFILES /P "%filePath%" /S /M "%fileName%" /C "cmd /c echo #path"') do (
set /a findFiles+=1
echo %findFiles% - %%~A
)
Update: As to clarify what I wanted, My batch file should return the list of duplicate files if the result is greater than 1, if the return list is only one then it should echo out "No duplicate files found".
Based on my comments here are some examples for you.
First using your ForFiles method and delayed expansion:
For /F "Delims==" %%A In ('"(Set file[) 2>Nul"') Do Set "%%A="
Set "i=0"
SetLocal EnableDelayedExpansion
For /F "Delims=" %%A In (
'ForFiles /P "%filePath%" /S /M "%fileName%" /C "Cmd /C Echo #Path" 2^>Nul'
) Do Set /A i+=1 & Set "file[!i!]=%%~A"
If %i% Equ 0 Echo File %fileName% not found in %filePath% & GoTo End
If %i% Equ 1 Echo No duplicates of %fileName% found in %filePath% & GoTo End
For /L %%A In (1 1 %i%) Do Echo [%%A]!file[%%A]!
:End
Pause
Using For /F with Dir and delayed expansion:
For /F "Delims==" %%A In ('"(Set file[) 2>Nul"') Do Set "%%A="
Set "i=0"
SetLocal EnableDelayedExpansion
For /F "Delims=" %%A In ('Dir /B /S /A-D "%filePath%\%fileName%" 2^>Nul'
) Do Set /A i+=1 & Set "file[!i!]=%%A"
If %i% Equ 0 Echo File %fileName% not found in %filePath% & GoTo End
If %i% Equ 1 Echo No duplicates of %fileName% found in %filePath% & GoTo End
For /L %%A In (1 1 %i%) Do Echo [%%A]!file[%%A]!
:End
Pause
You could also use Where instead of Dir changing its line 4to:
For /F "Delims=" %%A In ('"Where /R "%filePath%" "%fileName%" 2>Nul"'
You could use RoboCopy changing line 4 to the following two lines:
Set "RCO=/S /L /XJ /R:0 /FP /NS /NC /NP /NDL /NJH /NJS"
For /F "Tokens=*" %%A In ('RoboCopy "%filePath%" Null "%fileName%" %RCO%'
Or possibly a For /R option changing line 4 to:
For /R "%filePath%" %%A In ("%fileName%?"
The For /R version is a little strange because it has to use a wildcard, whilst this could be problematic, it may be useful however should you doubt whether your file has the .doc or .docx extension; (it should match both)
I got the codes below. Here is my situation, I want to copy my modified hosts the host file in each of my clients units. But some of my clients hosts file was already modified(and I dont want to mess it, they are allowed to access these some site) while some host arent modified.

But either it detects a certain host entry or not, my code will copy my modified host to the remote PC. Please help me, thanks.
It's IMO easier to put the checks into a sub where you can return on any fail to the call in a for loop. I don't use If's but conditional execution on fail || or success &&.

I think your code checks every folder and if it finds ones called history then they are all deleted.
If that is the task then this should do the same thing.
