Pining a .BAT/.CMD File to Taskbar

  • 發行項

When a .BAT file or a shortcut pointing to a .bat file is opened, we will not find an option to "Pin the program to taskbar”; and we can’t neither drag nor drop the file to the taskbar.

The .CMD file has the same behavior as the .BAT file.

Method

 

Please perform the following steps to pin a .BAT/.CMD file to taskbar:

1. Pin a shortcut for cmd.exe to the taskbar.

2. Right click the shortcut on the taskbar and you will see a list that includes "Command Prompt" and "Unpin this program from the taskbar".

3. Right click the icon for Command Prompt and select properties.

4. In the box for Target, go to the end of "%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe" and add "/C" (without quotations) and the path and name of the batch file.

5. Then the batch file will be pinned to the taskbar.

For .CMD files, you also can try the same procedures.

    This method works well for a single file. Unfortunately it won't let you pin multiple files. Is there any way to do that?

    johnastevens.com/helpTopics.aspx a simple application which you can pin to your taskbar that will then allow you to pin batch files to it.

    Yep, worked as advertised. If you want to change the icon of the link, make sure you do it before you pin it to the taskbar.

    Follow Patrick's comment. The correct spacing is needed. I've just added a .BAT to taskbar, works perfectly. Cheers Patrick :)

    Works perfectly, thank you. This works for several shortcuts as well, not just one. For every shortcut you intend to use just make an additional command prompt shortcut and apply the command instructed above. Reading the directions usually points to success for future reference to those of you claiming "this does not work". First attempt with flying colors, thank you again.

    Works well. Make sure you leave a space after cmd.exe.
    ie. ...cmd.exe /c C:Program Files...filename.bat
