Basically I have created an choice batch that every so often I can archive the contents of my boot data since I change it quite often and it works absolutely perfect, however I face the problem that every time I compile the batch from .BAT to.EXE with Advanced BAT to EXE converter the command 'bcdedit' never works and says “Not recognised as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.”
Now the first thing I did was to make sure if I had the environment variables directed on my hard drive and it seemed fine:
Path: %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\OpenCL SDK\2.0\bin\x86;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\OpenCL SDK\2.0\bin\x64;C:\Users\Support\DOCUME~1\MYFILE~1\Programs\SYSTEM~1\DISKEE~1\
It has all the variables needed to work perfectly plus a few external ones which is ok then I thought that maybe I should try to make it direct on my folder, by doing some research I found on another forum:
Setting or Modifying a System Wide Environment Variable In CMD.EXE
I made a separate .BAT and I called it and it seems it did create the separate variable:
C:\Users\???\Documents\;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\QuickTime\QTSystem\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\OpenCL SDK\2.0\bin\x86;C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\OpenCL SDK\2.0\bin\x64;C:\Users\Support\DOCUME~1\MYFILE~1\Programs\SYSTEM~1\DISKEE~1" /f
But It Still Didn't Work!
I read upon another form:
Syswow64 Redirection
The person solution was to use Create Process () to create a program that automatically redirects him to the folder using sysnative (System32) but I'm a total beginner at C#, CMD is my strongest area when it comes to coding.

bcdedit is on the path by default so unless you are reusing the PATH variable then the problem is in the batch compiler.
You can test this by using the plain batch file - and if it works then you know where the problem is.

I'm in the process of creating a mini-game using batch and one of the useful tool ideas was to have an interactive notepad so that users could store information throughout the game and refer back to it later. So far I have created the option to goto a notepad within an In-game pause menu but wasn't sure if it was possible to save results without outputting to new file on the desktop
:PauseMenu
cls
echo.
echo %Alias%
echo.
echo Notepad
echo Stats
echo Untitled2
echo Untitled3
echo Untitled4
echo Untitled5
echo Untitled6
set/p PauseMenu="N, S"
IF ["%PauseMenu%"]==["N"] goto Notepad
IF ["%PauseMenu%"]==["S"] goto Stats
IF ["%PauseMenu%"]==["N"] goto
IF ["%PauseMenu%"]==["N"] goto
IF ["%PauseMenu%"]==["N"] goto
IF ["%PauseMenu%"]==["N"] goto
IF ["%PauseMenu%"]==["N"] goto
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
PS is it possible to go back to the previous page from a menu?
Simplicity itself.
First, some renaming may be in order. notepad is a supplied utility and pausemenu is being used both as a variable and as a label. This is not invalid, but can be a little confusing.
Further, if you are choosing between a set of keys, I'd suggest you investigate choice. choice has a number of advantages, like it only accepts one character, no enter is required and it's not necessary to analyse the entry.
So: revising your code:
:p_pausemenu
pause
:PauseMenu
cls
echo.
echo %Alias%
echo.
echo N Notepad
echo S Stats
echo 1 Untitled2
echo Z Untitled3
echo Q Untitled4
echo J Untitled5
echo X Untitled6
:: Note that the processing of ERRORLEVEL must be in reverse order
choice /c ns1zqjx
if errorlevel 7 goto labelx
if errorlevel 6 goto labelj
if errorlevel 5 goto labelq
if errorlevel 4 goto labelz
if errorlevel 3 goto label1
if errorlevel 2 goto stats
if errorlevel 1 goto unotepad
:unotepad
start "Notes for %alias%" notepad "c:\gamedirectory\%alias%.txt"
goto pausemenu
:stats
:: List your stats here
echo Stats for %alias%
goto p_pausemenu
Here, a menu with a number of unimplemented options is presented and the choice command (see choice /? from the prompt for more options) waits for a choice to be made.
errorlevel is set according to the choice made - but since if errorlevel n means if errorlevel is n OR GREATER THAN n you need to process errorlevel in reverse order.
Then each selection is processed. n will start a notepad instance and load the alias.txt file from the game directory, then present the menu again as it returns to pausemenu. s will show the stats (idk what you need for that) and then return to p_pausemenu which will pause and then proceed to show the menu when the user signals to do so.
having an issue with a batch file which i would use in front of vagrant provisioning (merging files into an install-script to perform installation depending on user input) which looks like this:
#echo off
copy %CD%\Vagrantfile_base %CD%\Vagrantfile

echo 2 - Nginx
echo 3 - Qt
echo 4 - Git
echo 5 - gcc
echo a - Alle vorgenannte Software

if "%%i"=="1" call :nodejs_install
if "%%i"=="2" call :nginx_install
if "%%i"=="3" call :qt_install
if "%%i"=="4" call :git_install
if "%%i"=="5" call :gcc_install
if "%%i"=="a" call :all_install
)
:nodejs_install

call :gcc_install
PAUSE
goto :EOF
PAUSE
So when i execute the script it always calls the nodejs_install at the end even if i didnt choose it and i dunno why.
When i add an echo for the i it is empty shown.
Searching for very long but didnt found anything.
Maybe someone has an answer and/or fix for this?
Batch does not have true subroutines; if you do not protect the entry point of a subroutine with a GOTO to get around it, it will "fall through" into the routine. You need a GOTO :EOF after the ) and before the :nodejs_install.
My batch file skips specific loops and just does certain loops (it only does the first three loops and ignores the rest).
I tried rewriting the batch file, incorporating the new code into an old existing batch file I wrote, but I can't get it working.

Well lets start at the TOP.
This set of code has three things wrong with it.
Do not leave a space between your variable names and variable assignments.
When you need to use a variable you need to surround it with percent symbols.
Your GOTO command will GOTO label 1 regardless of the variable M equaling 1.
.
echo 1. Login
echo 2. Exit
echo.
set /P M = Command :
IF M == 1 GOTO 1
:1
This code should really look something like this.
echo 1. Login
echo 2. Exit
echo.
set /P M=Command :
IF "%M%"=="1" (
GOTO 1
) else (
GOTO END
)
:1
You make the same mistakes in the next set of code. Not sure why you chose to use the percent symbols for one variable but not the other. Again, you need to close up the spaces, use percent symbols for all your variables and your GOTO will go to the label 2 regardless so you need some other code to branch to.
cls
echo Login
echo.
Set Pass1 = MCTh3sn3r
Set /P Pass = Enter Password :
IF Pass == %Pass1% GOTO 2
:2
So again, using my best coding practices I would code it like this.
:1
cls
echo Login
echo.
Set Pass1=MCTh3sn3r
Set /P Pass=Enter Password :
IF "%Pass%"=="%Pass1%" (
GOTO 2
) else (
Echo Wrong Password
Pause
GOTO 1
)
Just going to keep repeating myself. Same problems. Close up the spaces and use percent symbols with your variables. Might want to throw in a case insensitive check for their choices on this one. Not sure how you thought their answers were ever going to match here. You have quotes surrounding one side of your comparison but not the other. Not even going to correct this code you should understand by now what you are doing wrong.
echo. Set /P Choice = Command :
IF Choice == "S" GOTO 5
IF Choice == "R" GOTO 6
IF Choice == "L" GOTO 7
IF Choice == "TM" GOTO 8
IF Choice == "CP" GOTO 9
IF Choice == "FL" GOTO 10
No clue why you are using parentheses here.
:10
(
And here.
)
:End
Exit
This one is dead obvious. You can't have your label on another line.
if EXIST "PrivateFolder" goto
11
And here again. Close up the spaces. Put quotes on both sides of your comparisons. Use percent symbols to reference a variable. And read the HELP for the IF command. Use the /I option!
:13
echo Are you sure you want to
lock the folder (Y/N) ?
set /p Choice = Command :
IF Choice == "Y" goto 14
IF Choice == "y" goto 14
IF Choice == "N" goto 15
IF Choice == "n" goto 15
echo Invalid Choice goto 13
While we are here I would advise that if you are going to keep using the same variable over and over and over again that you clear out the variable before you ask the question. Make this change above.
set "Choice="
set /p Choice=Command :
Couple of problems here. The word file: is on its own line. The number 17 is on its own line. You finally realized that you needed to use percent symbols for you variables but the variable %Pass% is not the same as the variable %Pass %. Close up the spaces and use quotes.
echo Enter password to unlock
file :
set /p Pass = Password :
IF NOT %Pass% == MCTh3sn3r goto
17
#echo off

echo Moved.
echo Press any key to close Anti Hacker Configuration.
pause > nul
exit
:no
echo No?The program will not take full effect then.
pause
exit
If you want to test,make 2 batch files on your desktop called AH1 and AH2
It says Access Denied....why??
No matter what you put into the option variable, it will always go to :yes.
I'm guessing you got mixed up with the choice command when you were making this because errorlevel doesn't contain the option you choose when you have the set command.
From the set documentation:
%ERRORLEVEL% - expands to the current ERRORLEVEL value
So, you might want to change if %errorlevel% equ no goto no to if %option% equ no goto no.
Also, what happens if you don't put either yes nor no. You need to account for these things by perhaps having a exit command after the second if statement.
So, how I have it done right now, is that it that it calls another bat file to update it, and then that batch file updates, and sets %ERRORLEVEL% to 1. At the start of the original program, it checks if errorlevel is 1, if yes, it goes to the main menu, but right now, it doesn't call the update file, it just goes to the menu. This is my code
Main program
IF %errorlevel% EQU 1 goto begin
call updater.bat
:begin
echo MENU
Updater
set=errorlevel 1
wget (updatelink here)
call mainprogram.bat
Right now, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, which leads me to believe that some command is somehow increasing the errorlevel, but the only code before the errorlevel check is
#echo off
color 0f
cls
set currentver=v0.5.6
(check code)IF %errorlevel% EQU 1 goto begin
https://code.google.com/p/flashcart-helper/source/browse/trunk/0.6/FlashcartHelperRobocopy.bat
Here is what I have right now.
Don't play around with errorlevel. It's an internal variable. At the start of a batch, errorlevel will be 0 because all you've done is set a local variable. This will almost always ( never say never ) succeed. Also, if errorlevel is 1, and I'm reading this correctly you also seem to have an infinite loop? From what I understand of what you've said your batches are like this:
Main
#echo off
color 0f
cls
set currentver=v0.5.6
IF %errorlevel% EQU 1 goto begin
call updater.bat
:begin
echo MENU
Updater
set=errorlevel 1
wget (updatelink here)
call mainprogram.bat
As errorlevel get's overwritten each time you do anything you're asking for trouble. Change %errorlevel% to %error% and it should solve your problems. As it's a local environment variable it should also be passed between batch files. Just be careful not to use error elsewhere.

You can do that through these steps：
1.put two files in server,a config file, a higher version bat file which need to update; set last version num. in config file.
2.client bat should be checked update at every startup time. you can read the news version in server config file, then compared to local bat file version. if not equal, so do update, else other wise.
Do you have any problems?
