I remember I used to write in a .bat

call myprog.exe

But dos says call not a command ?!!

My question is not about cmd prompt but BATCH file.

I tried also

c:\some-path\myprog.exe

and

"c:\some-path\myprog.exe"

the error message: the exe is not a recognized internal command. It is a console application made in C# which runs if I launch it directly in cmd prompt not in batch

Update: the 2 first character ouput is weird there are some weird 2 chars I think it happens since I installed msysgit client http://code.google.com/p/msysgit/ which has somehow made something to command prompt.

Hope I can uninstall it…

I uninstalled it but still got the weird chars in front of my command:

'´++"C:\some-path\prog-example.exe"' is not recognized ...

    You have include full path for the exe file. Also if any of your directories in the path has spaces, don’t forget to include the whole text in quotes.

    Example:

    C:\Program Files (x86)\Winamp\winamp.exe

    Note: If you create a batch file and does not work as you expected. Run the batch file from command prompt and it will display the error message.
