Question

I have a .bat file with certain commands which it executes (XCOPY/DEL/RMDIR,etc)

Now what I want is, initially show a prompt to the user, as soon as the .bat is RUN.
Only IF the user says Y to the prompt should the complete set of commands should be executed.
ELSE it should just EXIT.
How do I do this?

Answer 1

set answer=N
set /P answer=Do you want to proceed? 
if /I not %answer% == Y exit /B
rem Continue here...

First SET command set a default value if the user just press Enter.
The /I switch in IF command ignore case in comparison.
