Question

I have the following code:

subst /d n:
subst n: C:\Temp
REM build
subst /d n:
subst n: @PreviousFolder

I want to know what is the previous folder assigned to drive N:, so I can restore it in the last line of code (here I use @PreviousFolder, but I don’t know its value).

Answer 1

Maybe something like this:

FOR /f "tokens=2*" %%f IN ('subst ^| find "N:\:"') DO set PREVIOUSFOLDER=%%g
