Code: Select all

%comspec% /k for /?

Run & read.

!k is right, you should read the help of the FOR command.
In your case I would run a for /f loop

Code: Select all

@echo off &setlocal
set fullname=C:/Test/Test/Test/Test.exe
for /f "delims=" %%a in ("%fullname%") do set "name=%%~nxa"
echo %name%
pause

You will have the contents of %fullname% in %%a. In %%~nxa the n is for file name and the x is for file extension.
