I used to know, and mess around with batch. Nowadays, batch is basically useless. It can't do much and is outdated.

I must admit that batch can come in handy to automate some simple commands. If you need to set firewall rules/install a service then it's pretty easy to use batch. Though powershell is getting more popular then batch. They both do seperate things, but if you're interested in batch, I would also recommend you learn Bash. It's still not that hard to learn but feels already more like a programming language than batch does. It's pretty easy to get a bash shell on Windows too if you don't want to install Linux.

Thank you for the input. that will help others in learning about both Batch and also bash. Smile
