Creating a folder using a batchfile

Comment:

Hello, I want to make a batch file which will create a new folder in the C drive called TEMP (C:\Temp) but I need the script to firstly check to see if the Temp file is already there, and if it is, it mustn’t overwrite it. Any ideas?

Reply:

IF EXIST C:\TEMP\ GOTO END MD C:\TEMP {other code...} :END ECHO C:\TEMP FOLDER ALREADY EXISTS

MD C:\TEMP Will create it if it doesn't exist. If it does, you get an error. ===================================== If at first you don't succeed, you're about average. M2
