Re: echo a for into a file?

Your extension .bat should really be .cmd , and the content of that file should ideally read as: @For /F "EOL=? Delims=" %%G In ('Dir "C:\myfolder\withmanyfiles" /A:-D /B 2^>NUL') Do @Echo File inside My Folder is %%G This however introuces an additional problem, it includes another character which ...

Re: Help designing a batch file to return driver information

A start would be to pipe the output through findstr.exe. %SystemRoot%\System32\pnputil.exe /enum-devices /drivers /class SmartCardReader 2>NUL | %SystemRoot%\System32\findstr.exe /RIC:"^De" /C:"^ *Driver [NV]" /C:"^ *[OMP]" /C:"^$" Obviously this would include the Outranked drivers too, (I've kept t...

Re: Unable to rework working script due to name of folder and / or removal of sign -

To begin with, there is no need whatsoever, in your script, to be using delayed expansion. Next, as you're generating a date in a very specific format, there is no need to include code to replace all hyphens with spaces, and then remove all double spaces. All you need to do is to is to generate the ...

Re: Generic USB Drive Letter

I know what you're trying to do, but until you have the basic code correct, I'm not going to add more to it. You have now submitted a modified RoboCopy command line, which is still invalid/incorrect. The source and destination should not end with trailing backward slashes. In your case above you nee...

Re: Generic USB Drive Letter

First things first…your RoboCopy command is incorrect. Please open a Command Prompt window, type %SystemRoot%\System32\Robocopy.exe /? and press the [ENTER] key to find out its basic syntax.

Code: Select all

Re: How to replace permissions with Setacl

If, as seen in your GUI screenshot, the only user who has the necessary permissions to modify, (nevermind delete), this, is the current owner, TrustedInstaller. For that reason, my assumption is that only TrustedInstaller can modify the permissions, you can clearly see that SYSTEM and Administrators...

Re: Delect Registry Key

The first observation I made, is that you clearly have not read the help and usage information for the command utility you are using. If you open a Command Prompt window, type reg delete /? and press the ENTER key, you'll see that there is an option which Forces the deletion without prompt. , i.e. /...

Re: Exporting two keys from Registry residing in two different places on Windows 10

Just because you are wrong, or your system is completely broken, does not mean that my advice is incorrect. Your HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-4151016604-2149655897-3626235661-1001 subkey is automatically mapped and mirrored, (a little like a junction / hard link), to HKEY_CURRENT_USER, when logged in. They a...

Re: Exporting two keys from Registry residing in two different places on Windows 10

You clearly didn't read my response. Please use the reg.exe command I offered, you will almost certainly see that both keys are identical, and therefore your entire question void.

Re: Exporting two keys from Registry residing in two different places on Windows 10

The first thing I thought, when I saw your question was...are you sure you need to do this? Just in case you are unaware , the key HKCU is loaded from the relevant HKU\SID key at login time. It is very likely, unless you've just been messing around with your registry, that your own SID is S-1-5-21-3...
