    Pass an argument from a .bat file to PowerShell script


    I have subscribed to a push notification service in order to be able to send push notifications to my phone.
    Here is the PowerShell script:
    Code:
    I have not included the actual token or user values, but when I do, and I call this from a .bat file, it works.
    Here is the .bat file:
    Code:
    What I want to be able to do is insert a text message into the .bat file and pass it to the powershell script. The text could be a literal string or a file reference.
    How would I do either?
    Thanks.

    BAT file/Script to find and replace files

    FordGT90Concept!!!

    Your attachment is very close, it kept all the 5 numerals intact, but like you said: "it will rename them all from "#_Example_720p.zip" to "RAT_Example_#_24f_ONO.zip"...

    Greetings, Streetfighter 2

    I can't seem to get the BAT to work, but I'll still keep on trying.


    Any other suggestions, or BAT scripts Streetfighter & FordGT90Concept?

    BAT file/Script to find and replace files

    Hey all....

    Can someone help me make the BAT script in the 2nd post above to be able to use MORE than "1" file?
    As it currently is, you can only replace one particular file.

    For example, I want in the command line to be able to write two files or more, and the script will find and replace all those 2 or more named files.
    Thanks much.

    P.S.... Is there a GUI that does file searching and replacing?
    I've spent hours searching on the net, and the only thing I can find are "text" search/replace and this BAT command, not actual "file" replacing. I find this amazing. *Frown Pass an argument from a .bat file to PowerShell script :(

    BAT file/Script to find and replace files

    Hi, innovative thinkers! I am looking for a BAT file or script that takes random named zips, consisting of 5 random numerals in the name, and renames the zips identical to different .txt files with that same 5 numeral in the same folder.

    Here is an example of what I mean:

    BEFORE BAT

    C:\Documents

    45678_Example_720p.zip
    34284_Example_720p.zip
    67483_Example_720p.zip

    RAT_Example_45678_24f_ONO.txt
    RAT_Example_34284_24f_ONO.txt
    RAT_Example_67483_24f_ONO.txt

    AFTER BAT

    C:\Documents

    RAT_Example_45678_24f_ONO.zip
    RAT_Example_34284_24f_ONO.zip
    RAT_Example_67483_24f_ONO.zip

    RAT_Example_45678_24f_ONO.txt
    RAT_Example_34284_24f_ONO.txt
    RAT_Example_67483_24f_ONO.txt

    I would like the BAT to take only those matching 5 numerals as a reference.

    Thanks
