I want to use a batch file to ask for a password to continue, i have very simple code that works. @echo off :Begin cls echo. echo Enter Password set /p pass= if %pass%==Password goto Start :Start cls echo What would you like me to do? (Date/Chrome/Lock/Shutdown/Close) set /p task= if %task%==Date goto Task=Date if %task%==Chrome goto Task=Chrome if %task%==Lock goto Task=Lock if %task%==Shutdown goto Task=Shutdown if %task%==Close goto Task=Close I need to detect when the user entered an invalid password, i have spent an hour researching but i found nothing. I'm not advanced in any way so try and keep it very simple like the code above. Please help me.
