Answer 1

Hi,

If we use package, there is no need to add the "cmd /c", like below example:

Alternatively, if we don't want to use a package, we can use either of the following:

1, run the .cmd or .bat from UNC path (make sure you authenticate first), see below sample picture

2, write the command in the "Command line" textbox directly as below:

cmd /c "mkdir c:\temp" & cmd /c "echo ABCD ran > c:\temp\ABCD.log"

mkdir c:\temp
echo ABCD ran > c:\temp\ABCD.log
echo off
exit
