I want to write .bat script which works under all flavours of Windows, no matter if 32 or 64 bit.
In this script I want to run some file.exe. That file is located in C:\Program Files\ under 32-bit systems or C:\Program FIles (x86)\ under x64 systems. I can write:
"%ProgramFiles(x86)%\file.exe" under 64bit systems
or
"%ProgramFiles%\file.exe" under 32bit systems
but I want to make the script universal. Is there any way of determining that path universally?
Hi,
I am very interested in learning windows shell programming. So...I searched for books on the amazon.com. I see that books on the amazon.com are out of date. Most of books are published before 2005. I googled about it and found many tips and tricks, but not step by step guide.
Where do I get started?
I sometime use the very simple but effective svncommitmonitor,
http://tools.tortoisesvn.net/CommitMonitor
to monitor activity. It's easy to see in the sys tray on a windows box and I've become used to it by now.
So, is there a similar/identical tool for CVS. Some googling and to my surprise I couldn't find one.
Any tips?
I have been looking for a way of modifying static strings stored in Windows .exe files in the .rdata section, however I haven't found a real way to do so yet.

I have a Java program that opens a file using the RandomAccessFile class.
I'd like to be able to rename that file while it is opened by Java. In Unix, this isn't a problem. Does anyone know how I can do this in Windows?
Should I set Java to open it a certain way?
Thanks in advance.

Hello, I've got the following question:
Is it possible te disable everything in windows except the program it's running?
I need to program an application on a touchscreen (fullscreen), where people can fill in a survey.
The only thing they should use is this program. (for protection of the survey anwsers and other secret stuff :p )
And the program should be closed when entering the right password.
So how can I disable everything else but the program I'm running?
Thanks

I found an old Windows XP SP2 in my -trash- cd can and tried it on a 30 GB FAT32 partition.
Installation went fine till the copying operation was completed and XP asked for reboot. After that either it starts over again or throws invalid disk.
Starting over is an infinite loop the only way I see is to choose the "Repair console" but I'm not used to a DOS box.
Can anyone help me through this harmful installation?
Using iis7, windows 7, asp.net 3.5. I have in my hosts file
127.0.0.1 mysite

Edit
One more question. What happens if I leave it out? The web site I'm working on doesn't address via IPv6, at least, not that I know of.
