Create batch files

In DOS, OS/2, and Microsoft Windows, a batch file is a text file containing a series of commands intended to be executed by the command interpreter. When a batch file is run, the shell program (usually COMMAND.COM or cmd.exe) reads the file and executes its commands, normally line-by-line. Batch files are useful for running a sequence of executables automatically and are often used by system administrators to automate tedious processes.

DOS batch files have the filename extension .bat. Batch files for other environments may have different extensions, e.g. .cmd or .bat in the Microsoft Windows NT-family of operating systems and OS/2, or .btm in 4DOS and related shells. The now-obsolete Windows 9x family of operating systems only recognize the .bat extension.


How to create a .bat file:


step1: Open the notepad either directly from run(type: notepad) or from program files>Accessories>Notepad
step2: Type the required commands in that file e.g
cd\
shutdown -s
exit
step3: save the file as <>.bat
step4: To run the file just double click on that file.
process over
Cheers..
