Windows 10: Having the output from a command within a batch file in a different color

Hello. I am preparing to run the following script on one of our servers: REM Launch the batch files listed below to start the Exceed X environment, REM and log into the mcrs3 server using the putty application. REM List the hostname of the server that is being connected to by this script. hostname echo After you log into the mcrs3 server, run the VM_app1 command. Start Exceedstart.bat Start puttylogin.bat pauseI would like to have the output from the hostname, and the echo statement to be a different color. How can this be done?

Batch "timeout" command not orking

I tried it in the command prompt and inside a batch file. I have tried to use this command in many different batch scripts and still get the same error. I am not facing any issues with windows as far as I can tell.

Some other batch commands do not work either, such as ping or tree, but I can do almost everything else such as create files, insert items into files, display text, and change text color.

 

DOS Command issued from Batch file

I have been running a batch file to list my personal file, and output the listing to a text file in a folder (dv7).

Folder is on same level as Bat file.

I then use the text file to compare to files on another computer or external drive, as backup.

For some reason it no longer works.

The command in the BAT file is:

@dir "C:\Users\Sales\Zonal\" /o:gn /s /t:w> "C:\Users\Sales\Desktop\For BATCH\dv7\"

To demo the problem, I included two additional commands - results is in screen capture.

@dir "C:\Users\Sales\Zonal\"

@dir "C:\Users\Sales\Desktop\For BATCH\dv7\"

@dir "C:\Users\Sales\Zonal\" /o:gn /s /t:w> "C:\Users\Sales\Desktop\For BATCH\dv7\"

Pause Check for errors

Pic = note the directories are found. and then not found. Why?
