Have you tried change the path to where the testout.txt is created? Instead of writning to the root of C: try write to a subfolder instead.

I have tested this on Windows 7 and it's working for me when I open a cmd window using the /u switch like this:

Code:
cmd /u
The difference for me is that I write the testout.txt to C:\Programs\Test which is a folder I have write access to.

Thanks for the information, I don't know why I get this problem with the dir command, but I know I have write access to the folder, because the textfile is created even after running PAEXT.

My only suggestion to you is that you try change the path in the bat folder to a subfolder instead of the root folder.

Kind Regards
