Batch file won't open specific file path

[jsublime]

Hello,

I have a batch file which opens several programs. I'm having trouble with one of the prgrams not loading.

Here is the target path:

@echo off

C:\a\b\c.exe -run NT_NA WIN_32

If I go to \b directory I can't run c.exe without the "-run NT_NA WIN_32"
which seems to be causing a problem with the script. Any advice?

Are there spaces in the path?

Try using the CALL command.

Code: Select all

call "C:\a\b\c.exe" -run NT_NA WIN_32

That doesn't seem to work either. Yes there are spaces in the path.

But you're certain that the arguments -run NT_NA WIN_32 are right?

[jsublime]

Yes. And if I go that directory in a command prompt and type c.exe -run NT_NA WIN_32 it will open the program. If I only enter c.exe it will not enter.

Hmm, then you could change the working directory and see what happens.

Code: Select all

cd /d "C:\a\b"
call c.exe -run NT_NA WIN_32
