Hi Brian!
I have tried recreate your problem, but for me it's working as expected or maybe I'm not doing exactly the same as you are. Anyway, this is what I have tried.
I'm in the folder C:\Programs\Test which have 3 subfolders. My bat file look like this:
Code:
PACOMP -u -r -p -o -xBackup.zip Backup.zip *
Saved as Backup.bat in folder C:\Programs\Test
I then run the bat file from a CMD window in the folder C:\Programs\Test
Code:
C:\Programs\Test>Backup.bat
C:\Programs\Test>PACOMP -u -r -p -o -xBackup.zip Backup.zip *

The path looks ok for me, it's from the current folder Test and then the subfolders. I don't get any parent folders above the Test folder.
Kind Regards
Micke
