Question about the "run" command

[kuiwu_cn]

There is a BAT file in the directory "F:\Test\".
I created a shortcut on this BAT file.

The content of the BAT file is:


@ECHO OFF
CLS
PAUSE

I run this shortcut with a script:

run quote ("F:\Test\Test.lnk"),,2,1;

But there is no BAT window, why?

XY does not internally resolve that .lnk, so either use

Code: Select all

run property("#ShortcutTarget", "F:\Test\Test.lnk"),,2,1;

or e.g.:

Code: Select all

open "F:\Test\Test.lnk";

My real need is:
Let the BAT file get administrator privileges. I set "run with administrator" on the properties of shortcuts, so that BAT can get administrator privileges.
Thanks very much。
Your method is very good, but it can't help me.

Then let the .bat file elevate itself and if this doesn't cut it, use an external tool, e.g.:

Code: Select all

REM ### Admin Check ########################################
REG QUERY "HKU\S-1-5-19" >NUL 2>NUL && GOTO :ENDUAC
SET "vbsFile=%TEMP%\~getAdmin.vbs"
IF "%1" NEQ "" (FOR /F "tokens=*" %%I in ('ECHO %*') DO SET "param=%%~I")

ECHO Set UAC = CreateObject^("Shell.Application"^)> "%vbsFile%"
ECHO UAC.ShellExecute "cmd", "/c """"%~s0"" ""%param%""""", "", "runas", ^1>> "%vbsFile%"
CSCRIPT "%vbsFile%" //Nologo
IF EXIST "%vbsFile%" DEL /Q "%vbsFile%" >NUL 2>NUL
EXIT /B
:ENDUAC

It's very interesting that the script below can execute normally. Why? Is it a BUG?

run quote ("F:\Test\Test.lnk"),,0,1;

Maybe shell lnk resolving isn't used / executed if XY needs to wait for it's termination

[kuiwu_cn]

I'm very sorry, but my English is not very good. I didn't understand your meaning. Can you explain it?

May I trouble you to explain it, thank you.

If this doesn't work:

Code: Select all

run quote("F:\Test\Test.lnk"),,2,1;

and this does:

Code: Select all

run quote("F:\Test\Test.lnk"),,0,1;

then XYplorer's script command "run" does not do the necessary resolving of the .lnk shortcut
to its real file when 2 is used for the wait parameter. Probably a bug then (Don needs to answer this)

If I have a BAT file, I want to get administrator privileges when I double-click it. I only need to add "(Need ADMIN)" in the file name. I have implemented this function already.

Code: Select all

    @ECHO OFF
    TITLE 另一个BAT执行完毕后，该BAT会自动退出

    "%~dp0Let_the_BAT_File_Have_ADMIN.lnk" %~1 %~2

XYplorer is a great software. I like it very much. I use it every day.

I can only confirm these findings. With the "wait" flag set to 1 or 2, the CreateProcess function (Windows API) is needed but this function does not support LNK files.

In the bext beta you will at least get an error message.
