Long story short, I am creating a batch file to extract the Volume Serial
Number off the computer, and place ONLY the serial number into a text
file.
I start by running the following command from CMD.exe
dir | find /I "serial"
That command returns the following:
Volume Serial Number is 5555-5555
How can I extract or echo ONLY the 5555-5555 to a TXT file from the
command?
Here is how you do it in a Windows batch file:
@echo off
for /F "tokens=5" %%a in ('dir c:\ ^| find /i "volume serial"') do set
Serial=%%a
Best to copy & paste Line 2 in order to avoid typing errors.
