No? I'm only using one batch file. Simply trying to pull some text from a .txt file.

I was kind of hoping you'd mention that one because I've been poking at one of the answers for the last hour and a half. Oddly enough the response: for /f "delims=," %%a in file.txt do set hostname=%%a & set backupdrive=%%b & backupdir=%%c & xbackupdir=%%d doesn't exactly seem to work as it...

I've slowly gotten closer, step by step, to finishing this batch file of mine. This time, I need to be able to pull information from a text file into the batch file. For example, I'd like to be able to pull information such as a username and a password from a text file, and use it in the batch...

Unfortunately that only worked on files and not folders. I did find a workaround using an old powershell script. So it wasn't necessarily what I was looking for. Yeah this isn't going to work as we're doing things from a single batch file. Updating files, restarting programs, and creating...

So, I've procured a way to list a group of folders in a directory, now I have another dilemma. How could I go about renaming the folders using a batch file to remove spaces? Unfortunately the project I'm working on requires me to not have any spaces in the directory names, therefore if the...

Perfect! I couldn't figure out to use delayed expansion. Honestly had no clue it was there and it didn't exactly seem like it was needed, but that makes a lot more sense now! Thank you!

Yeah that's not entirely what I'm looking for. I'm trying to pull a list of folders at a directory, without listing subfolders or files. For example: C:\Documents\Games\ Would be incorrect as a listing, as it only gets to the directory. Instead I'd like it to output...

That should only list off the folders within that directory and not their subfolders/files correct? Essentially folders and files will be added/removed from this directory over time. Instead of manually updating a list each time, I'd prefer to simplify the process and have the batch file...

So, I have a pretty niche request. I'm looking for a way to declare a list of folders as a variable. (Like how in linux I can use holder, and then call it later as $holder.) Unfortunately I don't need the list of subfolders or files. ONLY the main directory of folders. My hope is to have...

So, I'm starting a home project (as the title proclaims) on an 'all in one tablet/desktop'. That being said I just need some help finding parts/proper pieces. I do know a bit about computers as I've built one and put one into a pizza box (if you really want to see just ask for pictures). Now...
