This article demonstrates how to determine the location of a batch file. Batch scripts are great for automation.
Sometimes you may need to get the location of a batch file. This article will help you determine the working directory and batch file location.
Batch file location
We can use various static data and variables in batch files to identify different locations. Let's look at some examples.
%cd%The variable will point to the current working directory. For example, we include it in a batch file as shown below.
echo %cd%
pause
As shown below, we will get the working directory where the script is run.
We will include the static shown below to get the name and full path of the batch file.
%0
This should return the full path and name of the batch file as shown below.
To get just the full path without the name, use the parameter expansion below.
%~dp0
