脚本批处理不适用于.bat文件，但如果在命令提示符下编写，则可以使用

Question

my question is that i have to delete from system registry every key and subkey that contain a specific word (that can change, it itn's always the same word)

until now i have created a script in Batch that export in a .txt file every key and subkey that contain the word i'm searching for, with a vbs script i can modify the name of the key (because the REG QUERY export key like "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" and REG DELETE need only "HKLM", then with another script i need to search every key (or subkey) the QUERY export and delete them. the script is like

SET /P keyword="insert keyword to search: "
REG EXPORT HKCU HKCU.reg
REG QUERY HKCU /f %Chiavediricerca% /s >logHKCU.txt
cscript replace.vbs "logHKCU.txt" "HKEY_CURRENT_USER" "HKCU"
FOR /F "delims=;" %i in (logHKCU.txt) do REG DELETE "%i" /va /f

now my problem is that if i write every line in a command prompt, the script work greatly, but if i put this code in a .bat file, the script stop when at the FOR command, closing cmd without displaying any error...

any suggestion? sorry if my english is not perfect, and thank for every help you can give me!

Answer 1

In batch scripts you should double the percent signs on variables for the FOR command. This is noted in the FOR command help ( for /? at the command prompt):

To use the FOR command in a batch program, specify %%variable instead of %variable. Variable names are case sensitive, so %i is different from %I.
