Question : HELP!!!  Trying to install an app using a script (bat file) via GP.

Hi, I have been trying to execute an .exe file using a script (batch file) via GP (Startup script) with no luck.

The Server: Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition (32-bit)
Client box:  Windows XP Pro (32-bit)

First, I am no scripter, so that is probably the first issue.  LOL
Second, I am trying to install an app (.exe) using a script via GP (Startup), which the exe file is on a mapped network drive that the system has access to, but it keeps giving me an error cannot find the file.

The exe will install the app using an answer file in the same location as the exe file and then reboot.

So, I am hoping someone can give me some insight into the script I am including.

If I left anything out that is needed to help resolve this, please just let me know.

Thanks for your time.

Bob

Try replacing

START "%SetupFolder%\Setup.exe"

with

cd %SetupFolder%
Setup.exe
