Title: Run CMD Commands in Batch Files
Post by: Teroro on October 28, 2021, 02:43:23 PM

How do I run multiple cmd commands in a batch file?

I tried this and it works

Code: [Select]

cmd /k "cd C:\Users\TE IUBESC!!!MAMI\OneDrive\Desktop\Sheesh"But after that the program stops doing anything.
How can I add more commands after that?
Like run this command right after the previous command then close the window?

There is no need to use CMD /K

Code: [Select]

cd /D "C:\Users\TE IUBESC!!!MAMI\OneDrive\Desktop\Sheesh"
echo I am in this folder: %cd%
echo Let's start notepad
start "" "notepad.exe"

/K     Run Command and then return to the CMD prompt.
          This is useful for testing, to examine variables
