*sigh* That's what I get for posting before I've had my second cup of coffee. Quite right - "try" refers to a label in the batch file, not an external command. It's been long enough since I've done anything significant in batch language that I forget that was doable.I sit blushingly corrected. (The last significant batch stuff I did was using CMD under Windows 7,Pro as part of a setup to run Firefox from a RAMdisk Iwas inspired to try that by what I used to do with a RAMdisk on the old DOS PC. The batch file ran on Windows startup, and unzipped an on disk copy of the Firefox profile to the RAMdis to do it, and a shortcut started Firefox using the on RAMdisk profile. Worked a treat, and sped up, performance a lot. The fun part was saving changes made in that session back to the zipped copy on the RAMdisk.That required being able to intercept a Windows Shutdown event, and do something when it was detected. The shutdown script zipped the changed RAMdisk copy back to HD. Group Policy Editor would let me define a shutdown script, but GPE is only available on Windows Pro and above. These days I'm on Win 10 Pro, booting off an SSD. While I have a RAMdisk, the SSD is fast enough that there is no benefit in running FF from it.) ______ Dennis _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
