You again

With all those questions about batch file you had lately, you're going to raise your knowledge.

Don't forget search button and Google are your friend and reading others batches can help a lot either.


5 seconds countdown

@echo off
echo this window closes in 5 seconds
echo.
echo 5
ping -n 2 127.0.0.1>nul
echo 4
ping -n 2 127.0.0.1>nul
echo 3
ping -n 2 127.0.0.1>nul
echo 2
ping -n 2 127.0.0.1>nul
echo 1
ping -n 2 127.0.0.1>nul

pause

I am not a coder but here what i worked out.

echo off
cls && mode con: Cols=55 Lines=5 && Color 9f && TITLE COUNTDOWN
 > Rest1.vbs Echo Wscript.sleep 875 && SET R1=Start /w Rest1.vbs
CLS
ECHO. && Echo .5 && ECHO COUNTDOWN 5 >> Test.txt && %R1% && CLS && ECHO. && Echo ..4 && ECHO COUNTDOWN 4 >> Test.txt &&  %R1% && CLS
ECHO. && Echo ...3 && ECHO COUNTDOWN 3 >> Test.txt &&  %R1% && CLS && ECHO. && ECHO ....2 && ECHO COUNTDOWN 2 >> Test.txt &&  %R1%
CLS && ECHO. && ECHO .....1 && ECHO COUNTDOWN 1 >> Test.txt &&  %R1% && CLS && COLOR F2
ECHO. && ECHO  CONTINUE >> Test.txt
SET /P = CONTINUE
DEL REST1.VBS && Test.txt
DEL Test.txt
