This repository contains a curated collection of useful batch files I’ve created over the years.
Batch files are plain text scripts that execute a series of commands through the Windows command interpreter.
Each Batch File (located in the source folder of this repository) contains a description of what it does and how to use it.
Additionally, some of the Batch File contain a :HELP section that will display the description and usage when the Batch File is executed with the /? parameter.
To run a Batch File, simply double-click on it using Windows Explorer or run it from the command line.
Tip
