running a bat file using psexec

Question

Hi,

I need to run a psexec command on remote pcs that should first change the directory to

C:\program files (x86)\antivirus

and then run ch.exe file. I tried but failed. I tried running it locally on the PC with CMD but failed with error message: "The system cannot find the path specified"

What is the proper way to run exe files from the command prompt without first going to the directory path of the exe file?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Hi @create share ,

to execute an exe with CMD just add the related full path in front of the exe. If the path contains spaces put "" around all.

For instance:

"c:\Program Files (x86)\Just A Test\write.exe"
