Solved batch file

[muiacir]

hi guys.
i have a question about bach files.
i am learning.
i want to create a bach file that when we run it , it runs a program and saves the programs data as txt file on a specific folder.
i write this batchbelow) file but do not know what is the orders to save the txt file in a specific folder(my batch file save the files in the root of drive)

start program.exe /stext program.txt

This part of the batch file is called a switch:

start program.exe /stext program.txt

It will not work unless program.exe watches for that switch.

What is the name of the program?
And do you have a link where it can be downloaded?

 

[muiacir]

i do not have the name of program.i am learning batch file.and do not test this order for a program yet.but as you said it is switch but it save the txt file in the root that the batch file is.for example if the batch file is in C drive.it creates txt file in C drive.i want to create txt file for example in a folder in desktop

maybe:

start program.exe /stext c:\users\username\desktop\program.txt

 

[muiacir]

i found a program to test.
WirelessKeyView: Recover lost WEP/WPA key/password stored by Wireless Zero Configuration service

Don't use "start"! And redirecting output to file instead of console is done by using >

dir > %userprofile%\desktop\output.txt

To output error messages and well:
dir > %userprofile%\desktop\output.txt 2>&1

To add output to some file
dir >> %userprofile%\desktop\output.txt

source: Microsoft Corporation

start WirelessKeyView.exe /stext c:\users\omidreza\desktop\WirelessKeyView.txt

i did not understand what you said.can you please write the codes as a batch file for my example

 

[Kaktussoft]

Do you want to redirect output or error messages or both? If both.... to same file?

dir>%userprofile%\desktop\output.txt

Put that in a bat file and run it. a file output.txt appears on desktop

Please post the exact code that you tried.

start WirelessKeyView.exe /stext c:\users\omidreza\desktop\WirelessKeyView.txt

This application does not support a full path in front of the output file. If you want the txt file to be on your desktop, then move the file named WirelessKeyView.exe to your desktop and try this:

c:\users\omidreza\desktop\WirelessKeyView.exe /stext WirelessKeyView.txt

thanks my friend but it works only when the batch file is on desktop.
when the batch file is for example in C drive and the program in desktop.the txt file will create next to the batch file not in desktop

i removed "start" and add "dir>%userprofile%\desktop\output.txt" at the end of my code:

WirelessKeyView.exe /stext WirelessKeyView.txt dir>%userprofile%\desktop\WirelessKeyView.txt

when run it , it creats WirelessKeyView.txt in desktop(does not have anything) and a txt file with the same name in the C drive near the batch fie(the batch file is near C drive) that has the password of my wireless.
i want taht the batch file create that .txt file of my wireless password in desktop not near the batch file

 

[Kaktussoft]

WirelessKeyView.exe /stext  "%userprofile%\desktop\WirelessKeyView.txt"

That's all you have to do

 

[muiacir]

WirelessKeyView.exe /stext  "%userprofile%\desktop\WirelessKeyView.txt

That's all you have to do

[UsernameIssues]

WirelessKeyView.exe /stext  "%userprofile%\desktop\WirelessKeyView.txt

I did not have any luck putting a path in front of the output file.

From what the OP has said - probably going to have to do a
CD %userprofile%\desktop\
full path to the EXE /stext WirelessKeyView.txt
