Run .bat files with cmd again
Hey, I accidentially went to go and run a .bat file and I (instead of using cmd) chose the default application to be notepad.exe
I attempted to reset the .bat extensions registry, however that did not work. How do I make it go back to default app being cmd?
P.s. Some of those files name(s) were changed to fool people into thinking they do something they don’t (it’s a prank lol)
Thanks guys!!! (Also, I couldn’t find anything on Google… Maybe I wasn’t searching up what I needed to…)

K, unless I was changing the registry to something else, or not the right thing. Whats your registry for the .bat files?

Just do right click on file, open with –> choose other and set one program by default
In your case you would choose cmd as default program when it’s about .bat format file :)
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘\’‘ at line 1
these are the only options I get in the context menu………..

Sometimes it works if you just plug off your graphics card and plug it back in, for me it worked several times. The only problem is when you have a laptop, if this is the case unfortunately you have to completely format your laptop. Be sure to take a backup of all your files, including the registry so that you can restore it back.
*Sigh
Here:
assoc .bat=batfile
PS.: Start C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe with elevated rights first (Administrator) before executing the command.

The hell?
Did you retry to open it? :D
Maybe this is what you need.
ftype batfile=C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe "%1" && assoc .bat=batfile
Before:
After:
Then retry opening the file.
Might there be an issue then:
procedure OpenHelp;
const
helpUrl = 'http://superuser.com/questions/29717/associate-a-file-type-with-a-specific-program';
begin
ShellExecute(Application.Handle, 'open', PChar(helpUrl), nil, nil, SW_SHOWNORMAL);
end;
Excellent last bit of code there DOS master, seems like this will really help OP.
Will also give him a place for his questions.
I sense your tolerance for pibcac is wavering.
@DOSmaster This didn’t work either. Plus, I dunno where to execute that last bit of code…
It did change the registry though, back to it’s original, unchanged form.
I really don’t know how I messed it up THIS much. Kinda dissapointing though. I can still run .bat files, just have to have the .cmd extension instead of .bat…… The .cmd extension still works!

Are we still on this? :P
The default settings are:
C:\>ftype batfile && assoc .bat
batfile="%1" %*
.bat=batfile
C:\>
@DOSmaster**: cmd.exe doesn’t accept a command line (edit: or executable) as argument.
What about:
- SHIFT+Right clic on a .bat file
- “Open with”
- Browse
go to: C:/windows/systme32/
Select: cmd.exe
- select: “remember this option”.
Done.

Or in other way:
Try gnome-terminal, konsole, xterm, rxvt, kvt, nxterm or eterm…. with sh (bourne shell),ash,bash,dash,zsh,or ksh if you want, but don’t use microsoft…From DOS to powershell, you’ll never have the same experience ;)

You array? :P
And PS isn’t as easy as it looks either, when you get into managing servers with it.
But I strongly agree on Linux distros being waaay better then Windows. (Unless you’re called OpenSuse or Ubuntu.)
PS.: I think you forgot to write Bourne-again shell (B.A.Sh or BASH as we know it.) as it’s the Linux version of the Unix v7 Bourne Shell (SH) {It could be that 32v has it as well, but I am not sure about that.}

No no, i don’t:
with sh (bourne shell),ash,
bash ,dash,zsh,or ksh if you want
[Mode history on]
The Bourne shell (Sh) was the default shell for Unix Version 7. (made in 1977)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bourne_shell
bash = Bourne-again shell is a Unix shell and command language for the GNU Project as a free software replacement for the Bourne shell. (made in 1989)

the array[] goes… :p
