Question

I want to use output for next command, so I find ZIP files on DESKTOP with:

dir [DESKTOP PATH] /b /s /a-d | findstr .zip

so.. output is ZIP DESTINATION :

C:\Users\[Profile]\Desktop\forexample.zip
C:\Users\[Profile]\Desktop\forexample2.zip

and I use special software with cmd option to delete files with *.exe extension inside ZIP using this command :

zip [ZIP DESTINATION] -d *.exe

Is it posible to USE first output for next command?

Answer 1

i think you can use :

for /f %%i in ('dir /b /s /a-d %userprofile%\desktop\*.zip') do zip %%i -d *.exe
