Open a .bat file

Hello,

I can't open a .bat file; which program should I use?

I tried using the command prompt, but the result isn't promising, maybe because it is "stuck" at c:\documents and settings\owner> (meaning I can't enter the correct path).

Thank you very much in advance for your help :-)
Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0

Hi,

No "edit" option in the context menu (lol?)! And anyway, it will just open a notepad for me, right?
What I want is to execute the commands contained in that darn file...

Who programmed your batch? Maybe there's just a small mistake at the beginning and it closes right away! No?

Uh... up? Sorry, my problem might seem silly, but I really need a hand!

Of course, I'm available for any rephrasing in case I wasn't clear.

Thanks again!

Hello,
I have the same problem as you:
I have only tried it on Windows 7, but it should work.
Instead of saving as .bat, save as .cmd
If you wanted to share something, I recommend
saving as both .bat and .cmd
There you go, I hope it works for you

Hi,

remove "@echo off" it’s what prevents you from opening it... normally.

@echo off
this is to ensure that nothing is displayed in the MS DOS command window, it signals the end of the "dialogue".

Hello

in principle, to execute a .bat file, you just need to double-click on it.
if that doesn't work, it means that the commands in your file contain errors. So you need to edit it to check.

so right-click and modify (with Notepad)

or rename it with the extension ".txt" to open it with Notepad.

Hi,

by double clicking on it, I get the now classic "Windows cannot open this file."
Apparently, it doesn’t contain any errors, but I’ll leave it to your judgment as I don’t know much about it.
