I'm trying to automate the running of an app when a user logs on. I've decided to use Batch script rather then VBScript at the moment.
The path to the app is C:\Program Files\Promissor\Administrator and the executable name is Administrator.exe
When i put the following code in a batch file and run it, i get an error saying it can't fine the specified path.
code:
C:
CD "Progra~1\Promis~1\Admini~1"
Admin~1.exe
But...
If i open a command prompt and do it all by hand, it works fine 
Any ideas?
Scripting isnt really my thing tbh

should be -
code:
CD C:\Progra~1\Promis~1\Admini~1
Admin~1.exe
should work 
edit 2 - also try
code:
cd C:\Program Files\Promissor\Administrator
Administrator.exe
