Pnputil in batch file

[rich205]

Hi everyone,

I have been lurking here for a while, reading your scripts and trying to see If I can work out why mine doesn't work but I cant seem to make it work correctly.

The command I would like to be able to run from a batch file is this:

for /f %i in ('dir /b /s *.inf') do pnputil.exe -i -a %i

It works perfectly if I open a CMD window and paste the command into the root folder. I cant seem to make it run as a batch file though.

Any help would be wonderful.

Thank you
Rich

While FOR variables in a command line have only one percent sign they have two in a batch script. So all you have to do is replacing any occurrence of %i with %%i and you're done

I know everyone hates it when people say RTM. But in this case, this usage is clearly defined in the help file.

To use the FOR command in a batch program, specify %%variable instead
of %variable. Variable names are case sensitive, so %i is different
from %I.

Just as off-topic comment: this problem have no relation to Pnputil program, but to FOR command, so the topic title is entirely confusing...
