%MYFILES% location problem

Post by jake20 »

i am calling a compiled batch .exe frm another batch file.
my problem is that the %myfiles% that are included in the compiled .exe are trying to extract to the default user profile directory which is locked down on my servers, so it fails with a permissions error.

is there a way to just use the current directory to extract the included %myfiles% or specify another directory to use other than the default user profile?

thanks

Same Issue....

Post by cdobol »

I have a .exe that runs for a couple of days. I have a number of shorter .exe's i would like to run while the longer .exe runs. The files in both .EXEs are the same, so I assume when the shorter .exe runs it can't overwrite the existing files because they are still in use by the long .exe.

In short I would like the same answer.... How can I change the %myfiles% location per .exe.

thanks.
