Batch File Calling CD Command May Not Run on Shared Drive Using HPFS
This article was previously published under Q183493
When a Windows 95-based computer runs a batch file at a
command prompt that calls the CHDIR or CD (change directory) command on a
connected share on a drive using the HPFS file system, the batch file may not
run any command in the file after the change directory command.
In Windows 95, a check occurs during the execution of the
batch file to determine the type of file system in use. When the HPFS file
system is returned (as an unsupported file system), Windows 95 attempts to read
the file again using the new path defined by the change directory command.
Because the new path does not contain the original batch file, the error
message "Batch file missing" is generated.

the Microsoft Download Center. Click the file name below to download the file:

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
