Windows 批处理文件更改第二条命令的位置

Question

I want to create a batch file to execute my Angular project:

setlocal
cd /d %~dp0
cd ui
npm i && npm start

The file simply goes to the current directory, and then goes to ui folder. First runs a npm i command, and then runs nmp start command. The problem is the second commands gives me the following error:

npm ERR: path C.\Windows\System32\package.json
...

Surprisingly the locations is changed to C:\Windows\System32\ and npm start command can not find a package.json file there. I want to know why does it happen and how I can prevent it. I want the second command to be executed at the same directory.

Answer 1

As @Compo suggested, adding a call at the beginning of the last line solved the problem.
