How to open multiple programs that require a carriage return confirmation dialog in batch processing - China DOS Union Forum

I need to open more than 10 identical programs. Such a program is like this: you click an executable file (look.txt), and then a dialog box pops up and you need to click OK (or space) to open the related executable file (get.txt). If you run look.txt directly with a batch script, there will be a pause and you need to manually confirm. I wonder if I can open them all at once without pausing.

The description is not clear enough. How can a.txt be an executable file?!

A rather strange question, and a rather strange thread starter

My understanding is:

I need to open more than 10 programs at the same time. Such a program, when you click a batch file, a dialog box will pop up and you need to click OK (or select the "OK" button with a space), and then the relevant executable file will be opened.
If you run it directly with a batch file, there will be a pause and you need to manually confirm.
I wonder if I can open all of them at once without any pauses?

look.txt is not an executable file but a text file.
It seems that your description implies that the file association might have been changed or notepad.exe might have been modified. Can you post your batch script so that everyone can help you take a look?
Or you can directly specify the executable file used to open look.txt in the batch script, for example:
c:\windows\notepad.exe look.txt
type look.txt

The Chinese in the original text "楼主的语文啊～～～～～～～" is not a standard sentence with a specific technical or translatable content in the context of retro-computing, DOS, etc. But following the requirements, if it's not translatable in a way related to the specified topics, we return the original text. So the translated result is: The LZ's Chinese language啊～～～～～～～

After looking at it for a long time, I still don't know what's going on exactly

It means this:

When you run: D:\one.exe, a dialog box will appear asking whether to "log in to the system" (there are two buttons: OK and Cancel. By default, just "press Enter or space" to open the program)

Because I need to open eight such programs at once. If I use a batch file, only the first one runs and the dialog box pops up. Only after pressing Enter or space can I continue running the second command. This is almost as efficient as doing it manually.

[*I just want to ask if a batch file can be used to achieve opening the program directly without the dialog box popping up*]

Oh, LZ, the expression in your first two posts is really...

This issue shouldn't be posted in this section; it can be posted in the section in my signature.

Using a VBS script to send an enter key should be able to solve the problem.


strExeFile = "D:\one.exe"
With CreateObject("Wscript.Shell")

    for i = 1 to 8
        .Run strExeFile         'Run the program
        Wscript.Sleep 500    'Wait for half a second, assuming your program takes half a second to start
        .SendKeys "~"         'Send an enter key
    next 

end With
