So my batch file is supposed to do this:
I have a few hundred WinRAR generated "(NAME).part???.rar" files that i want to put into a generated folder tree.
It should put the first 10 files (from 001 to 010) into a new folder named 001 (not just 1).
Then it takes the next ten (011-020) and put them into 002.
I i have fixed everything with adding the zeros automaticly, and i tested all variables but i can't get the actual file movement to work.
Here is what i'm trying to execute:
move "%FILENAME%" %LOOP2%\
%LOOP2% and is just the var %LOOP% (which starts at 1 and goes +1 every tenth loop) with all needed zeros in front of it (so 007, 035 and 455 etc.).
%FILENAME% comes from some more variables:
set FILENAME=%NAME%.part%COUNT2%.rar
%NAME% holds the name of the file/files/filepack (?) i want to move,
e.g. "Splitted file.part001.rar" would be "Splitted file"
(entered by user)
%COUNT2% starts at 1 and increases every loop until it matches the user-entered %NUMBER% var, which is the last file number (e.g. 468). It comes from %COUNT% which i don't want to change, so i created %COUNT2%.
I tried almost everything but sometimes cmd tells me the file or directory wasn't found or it suddenly closes displaying something with "can't syntacticly be used here" for a brief moment.
(Also the message is translated from German!)
People talk lot about putting double percent signs or double quotes or no quotes and so on and i tried most combinations but still i can't get it to work.
Can someone give me the right syntax and tell me where and how i have to use quotes and double percent signs?
I know my code and this text is pretty messy but i'm still learning :)
Ofc i asked Dr. Google and Stackoverflow but i think my case is a bit specific.
