PDQ - run batch file on user current folder...

Hi,
I'm running batch file:
cd %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\Temporary Internet Files\
but it's not opening the current logged on user
how to deploy it on current logged on user?
thanks,,,
This topic first appeared in the Spiceworks Community

This is not working for me in Windows 8.  I have a shortcut to an EXE file located in"C:\Users\admin\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup".  If I set the shortcut to run as administrator (screenshot attached) then it does
not run at all on startup.  If I uncheckmark "Run as Administrator" then it starts fine (but does not have enough privileges to do what it needs to do).  In Windows 7 this was not an issue since the current user was a local administrator and did
not need to elevate its privileges further.
Any ideas how I can work around this problem?  Thanks!
Ugh... it won't let me attach a screenshot until my "account is verified", whatever that means.

    thanks,
    this was one of the silliest problems I've ever encountered, my bad fault,
    the file is DevEnv not DevNev...!
    but about the clr, don't know from when I added them to my batches, but I'm sure the scripts were working correctly a time ago, maybe by a mistake I changed them, I thought it is the most known command, but I was wrong, there is a long time gap between me
    and DOS.

  • Event handler if new File added in current folder

    Hi folks,
    I'm just trying to write a little jsx script for Bridge CS6.
    How can I implement an event handler that will react if the user adds a new thumbnail (new file) to the current folder in bridge.
    I've tested it with this code, but it doesn't work:
    app.document.thumbnail.watch ("children", function(id, oldVal, newVal) {
         $.writeln (oldVal + " to " + newVal);
         // some code here
    Thanks. Greetings

    Beautiful. Works as advertised. Thank you for pointing it out to me. Unfortunate that a basic subset of this extension's behaviour doesn't ship with Thunderbird out of the box, though.

  • How to run batch file using trigger?

    Hi, i am trying run a batch file using a trigger on a table.
    say i have a table XYZ(col_1 varchar2 primary key, col_2 varchar2)
    the values of col_2 keeps changing and col_1 are constant
    whenever the value of col_2 in any row changes from "on" to "off" i want to run a batch file C:\Users\ABC\Desktop\test.bat
    i did some searching but couldn't find any solution. Thanks in advance

    >
    the script will be started around 60-70 times a day
    >
    No - as marwim said the script will be executed every time the trigger is fired. And that trigger, depending on how it is written, might be fired several times for the same transaction.
    And if the trigger is fired the script will be executed even if the transaction that caused the trigger to fire issues a ROLLBACK.
    Triggers are non-transactional. You need to clearly define the business rules for when the script should run. Should it run only when the transaction is COMMITTED? Or should it run if the transaction executes even if the transaction performs a ROLLBACK?
    A trigger is the wrong solution for your problem.
    Please clarify what the business rules are that should control the execution of the script.

  • HOST IN 10g to run batch file on application server

    Hi,
    I am trying to deploy a form from 6i to 9i. the form use Host builtin to run batch file on machine. this works fine when i run form on client server environment. but when i run the same form after compiling in 9i and run on 3 tier model and try to run batch file from form it give me error that
    'ftp' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
    operable program or batch file.
    any suggestion?

    It could be because the Host session doesn't have any environment variables set i.e. there is no PATH variable, so it simply doesn't know where to look to find the 'ftp' executable. You could try supplying the explicit path of the ftp executable and see if that works. (This was a problem I had running Host commands on a Unix application server.)

  • Unable to run batch files in my EP server

    Hi,
       I'am unable to run batch files(go.bat and configtool.bat) on my EP server.Anbody please give me a solution.
    With Regards
    Pradeep.B

    If your EP Server is on non-windows based environment then you cannot use go.bat & configtool.bat or else you can. If you are trying to execute these on unix based machines then you have to use go.sh & configtool.sh files.

  • SQL 2008 Agent - run batch file not working

    Hello,
    I am having some strange issues with a batch file running out of SQL agent I'm hoping I can get some help with.
    The batch file's purpose is to send some log files to a SFTP server.
    The job has been working great for the past 3 weeks, however this morning it stopped working. The job doesn't error out, however the entire job completes in 00:00:00 duration and I'm given the following message 
    Date 4/7/2014 3:38:00 PM
    Log Job History (***Log Transfer)
    Step ID 1
    Server *******
    Job Name **** Log Transfer
    Step Name run batch
    Duration 00:00:00
    Sql Severity 0

    Operator Paged
    Retries Attempted 0
    Message
    Executed as user: USERNAMERemoved . The step did not generate any output.  Process Exit Code 0.  The step succeeded.
    The batch file looks like 
    echo  *********************************
    echo  ** JOB EXECUTED %date% %time%  ** 
    if %errorlevel% neq 0 exit /b
    C:
    cd "C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP"
    winscp /console /script=G:\Batch\LogTransfer.txt
    call G:\Batch\LogTransfer2.bat
    echo ** COMPLETED %date% %time%  ** 
    echo  *********************************
    I have numerous other batch jobs running on this server, no other job has had this issue.  I have deleted and recreated both the job step and the entire job.  I have recreated the batch files from scratch.   I have also deleted the entire
    contents of the batch file and just simply put in echo **** and still received the message so I'm near positive it has nothing to do with the actual batch file.  
    I have reset SQL Agent, as well rechecked that the SQL Agent account has run batch rights granted to it.
    I moved the batch files to another folder, and they worked for about 4 runs until the same issue happened!!!
    The job does execute 100% perfect if I run it manually via batch or if I kick it off starting the job out of SQL.
    I am out of options here, does anyone have any ideas that could help me out?
    Thanks,
    Ryan

    Hello,
    Try to edit the step, and on the Advanced page of that step try to configure the job to create a log on the location you specify (Output file). Try to run the step again and examine the log created.
    Could you try to change the owner of the job to “sa” or to your Windows account? Maybe the SQL Server Agent account does not have access
    to the following folders:
    G:\Batch\
    C:\Program Files (x86)\WinSCP
    Alternatively, you can try to create a proxy account.

  • Run Batch File for Domain Computers on Startup

    Hello,
    I am trying to run a batch file I created to grab computer specs off of every computer on our domain.  I have created a new GPO under my domain and under there I have the file sitting under Computer configuation>policy>windows settings>scripts>startup
    and also computer configuation>policy>administrative template>system>run these programs at startup.  Neither one seems to be working... I know the batch file works because I have tested it on multiple computers.  Here is what the file

  • Task Scheduler won't run batch file automatically

    So, I have a folder filled with the program and the necessary resource files needed in order for it to function. When I start the batch file manually, (double-clicking) it functions as necessary. However, when i schedule it as a task, it either says it "the
    program has stopped working" "a file is missing" (although the file is indeed on the system and in the folder) or it starts the program but it opens it in cmd and opens up a text box with the directory of the folder. Also, I'm running a windows
    8.1 with a x64-bit OS.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Senor Vega,
    It sounds like it might be a permissions type issue keeping your file from running properly. 
    Check to see what type of user account it is set to run under. 
    It may be that it needs to run under an account with administrative privileges, which you would need to ensure that you have “Run with highest privileges” selected. 
    If you are running the task from a standard user account, make sure you select “Run whether user is logged on or not” and select a user from the administrators group.
    Also check the permissions of the batch file itself to make sure those are set properly.
    Hope this helps!
