problem executing cmd files

When I double-click them, then dont execute their commands and when I open the batch file from a command window, I get:

Code:

C:\>■t
'■t' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

Whats wrong?

 

something may of deleted your cmd.exe but goto Start\Control Panel\System\Advanced\Environmental Variables and check the Comspec is pointing to cmd.exe.

 

Yes Comspec is pointing to cmd.exe

 

Hello,
When you say cmd files, do you mean files that have the cmd extension? Or files that you try to run on the command line?
Mrk

 

Files with the extension "cmd".

 

Hello,
Is this a customized Windows? nLited?
Did you disable the scripting host etc?
Mrk

P.S. This a first-timer or something that once worked and now doesn't?

 

Yes its nLited and scripting host is not disabled.

I have not had this problem before.

 

I found the problem: when creating the batch file in Notepad2, I had saved it as unicode.

Saving it as ANSI makes it work again.
