I get this messgae whenever I run batch files (*.bat) in Win98. My command.com is present on C:\ and on C:\WINDOWS.
I get this messgae whenever I double click a batch file on Windows Explorer.
Does anyone in here knows whats the problem????

Open up Command.COM in Notepad and post what's in it.

[edit]
Command.COM may be corrupted, this happened to me a while back on my XP machine which had a 16-bit DOS error in Autoexec.nt. I ended up having to get a copy of the file off a friend to make things work again.

What does your path environment variable say?

goto folder options and click the "file types" tab. look for batch file. redirect the program it opens with to the command.com in your c:\windows\system(32) folder.

Or just copy the COMMAND.COM in your Windows folder to C:\

The batch files work when you run them in the command prompt, anyway I re-install it. That fixed the problem.

Probably. AVG doesn't seems to find one.
