Does this batch work on Win 7

I don't know if Win 7 can even use batch files.
If it does, I would appreciate testing this out.

In order to help in the cleanup in using another computer,
I created a directory using explorer.exe.

z, then Alt 255

To get the 8.3 name, which you will need to change to it from a cmd,
Use dir /x from the root directory.

This works great when shelled out, but not when run from explorer.exe
I even tried adding a path statement with both directories.

Does Win7 allow extended chars in directory names?

:: j2z.bat
c:
cd /D /Z0AA7~1
Have a great day,

Just tried Win 7 with extended characters i.e. using Alt & the keypad, works O.K.

Thanks Neil.

The batch works good in XP from a cmd window.

It doesn't work when double clicked when I am using explorer.exe.
