Hi, i am trying to use something that involvles using a batch file but when i try to open one i get this message ! C:\Users\HP\Desktop\20xx\20XX 4.05 Creator.zip: No files to extract
like it does not even open a cmd and i cant move batch files to folders if i try to open a batch file though something else it says that it cant be found please help
Opening a batch file will run the instructions - you need to select edit to check the contents, or open notepad and load the .BAT file
The message appears to relate to an attempt to open a Zip file that is actually empty or corrupted
i don't see anything that says edit when i right click on the file does me using winrar have anything to do with this?
Extract the .bat file (or the entire archive) and work with the extracted file.
Like Barman58 indicated, the default action is to run the commands in the file. If you want to view or edit it, right-click it and select Edit.
whenever i try to extract it it still says no files to extract and i can't put it into a folder
My best guess then is that the archive is corrupt. Does WinRAR have an archive test feature? Have you tried other software such as 7-zip?
i dont think the archive is corrupted this happens with all batch files
Could you post some screenshots so we can be sure we're on the same page?
this is what happens
If you have notepad open just drag the .bat file from explorer onto the notepad window. Post a screen shot of the notepad window after the bat file is dropped on it.
