Does double-clicking this batch file after creating it with "@FORMAT c: /s /q /autotest >NUL" completely ruin your own system? If that's really the case, can it be used to harm others?

Under Windows, you can't format drive C, but drive D can be formatted. It can be used to harm people, which is also why you shouldn't execute programs casually

It turns out that formatting is also so complicated.

Think it's simple, right?
Enter "format c:" and press Enter, then Y and press Enter again to finish

Brother, I just know. If you don't have Wim98 on other disks, you'd better put a boot disk (Win98) and format c:

/Q: Perform a quick format;
/S: Complete the format and copy the system boot file to the disk.
Note: This command will erase all data on the target disk, so be extremely careful when using it. If you perform a normal format, the data on the disk may still be recoverable, but if "/Q" is added, it will be extremely difficult to recover, almost as hard as reaching the sky.

The following is a quote from iceboy at 2004-1-14 21:18:35:Very detailed!!!
Hehe~
If it is a batch processing, it should be written like this:
@FORMAT c: /s /q /autotest >NUL
@ means not to display this command. If there is @ECHO OFF at the beginning of the batch file header, it is equivalent to adding an @ to each line of command, so there is no need to write it again. FORMAT is format.com.
c: is the drive letter, the drive to be formatted.
/s makes a system disk, that is, copies DBR, io.sys, msdos.sys, drvspace.bin, command.com.
/q is quick format, only clear the DIR area and FAT table.
/autotest means that format.com does not prompt you whether to format.
>NUL redirects the output result to the "virtual device" and does not display it on the screen.

In general, you can type "command" in the Run dialog and press Enter, then type "format c: /s /q" to do it. If it's not the system drive, just use "format x: /q", where X is the drive letter.

Put the floppy disk or CD into the computer to boot, enter the DOS prompt (A:\>
