If the 1) is just indicating a line number and the actual line is:

000000fd9ac1873d-0000-0509-94050a25

then you can:

for /f %%L in (somefile) do (
>> newfile echo %%L1 )



=====================================
If at first you don't succeed, you're about average.

I should read more carefully.

::==
@echo off

for /f %%L in (somefile) do (
>> newfile echo %%L.1 )
::== DONE
