After converting the bat file to exe, the code doesn't work anymore. Need the exe to run on Windows XP. Why the code doesn't work after convertion to exe? Here is the code:

@rasdial VPN user password
@setlocal
@for /f "tokens=1-2 delims=:" %%i in ('ipconfig ^| find "IP Address" ^| find "172.23"') do set GETIP=%%j
@route add 172.21.233.0 mask 255.255.255.0 %GetIp%
@endlocal

Thank you.

  1. Stop hiding output with @.

  2. Put a pause at the last line.

  3. Read what it says.

  • Read error messages. That's always a sensible step in troubleshooting, but not followed often enough. – rojo Mar 11 '15 at 14:47
