A command in a .bat file is unrecognized when the .bat file is called from an Inno Setup but works fine when I run the bat file manually

Question

I have the following .bat file:

fbwfmgr /enable
.
.
.
fbwfmgr /addexclusion c: \"some folder 1\"
fbwfmgr /addexclusion c: \"some folder 2\"
.
.
.
         


        

Answer 1

You probably need to provide the path to fbwfmgr.

e.g.

"C:\Users\JOHNDOE\SomeDir\fbwfmgr“

Note

You will almost certainly need to run the batch script with administrative privileges too! I know you said you are logged in as the administrator, but you need to be certain that you have the permission for the script to be running especially as you are running it from another application, (inno).
