BAT output

Hey guys!

I want to get a reg output file from a bat file
I will run x.bat it will give me x.reg

Everything seems to be ok. But i want double \\ character for path entry and it gives me one \ character
and i dont want the last \ character too

bat script and the outputs are here;

C:\OKUL\SINIF\OGRENCI\x.bat i run that

x.bat

Code:

CD /D "%~dp0"
set x=%~dp0
echo Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00>x.reg
echo. >>x.reg
echo [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\*SuckSystem]>>x.reg
echo "Name"="destro">>x.reg
echo "Path"="%x%">>x.reg
echo "ChatState"=hex:02>>x.reg
echo "MiniDash"=hex:00>>x.reg
echo "OpponentList"=hex:01>>x.reg
Reg Import "x.reg"

x.reg i got that

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
 
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\SuckSystem]
"Name"="destro"
"Path"="C:\OKUL\SINIF\OGRENCI\"
"ChatState"=hex:02
"MiniDash"=hex:00
"OpponentList"=hex:01

result;

"Path"="C:\OKUL\SINIF\OGRENCI" i am taking this entry

"Path"="C:\\OKUL\\SINIF\\OGRENCI" i want this entry

Can you help me to fix this?

MS-DOS and Windows use the single backslash \ in their path statements. I seldom see double backslashes so wonder what their use/need is. I do see the double forward slash // used with URLs.

if "!x:~-1!"=="\" set x=!x:~,-1!
set x=%x:\=\\%
echo "Path"="!x!">>x.reg
pause

Thank you very much hdmi, it has fixed my problem.

you need double \ to enter a path of an icon or executable file if you use .reg file
you can see a long example of winaero's settings context menu tweak
