Batch Files disable close

Post by jorefice »

I have a batchfile that will be ran by multiple users at various times to update a file. Is it possible to disable the box from being closed while it is running? Any thoughts...?

Personally I would approach this in a different way.
Make the batch file a scheduled task running under a different account to the one the user is using. This way, the user will not see the job running and therefore cannot close it.

Post the batch file here and we can see what we can do for you.

e.g. if you use the windows command AT, and do not choose to run the task interactivley (run AT /? for the commands) this should work for you
