In Windows Batch Scripting you come across various cases where a command execution halts during processing for confirmation prompt or user acceptance prompt (for example copy command shown below).
C:>copy TempTest.INI TempTest-new.INI
Overwrite TempTest-new.INI? (Yes/No/All):
0 file(s) copied.
C:>
In such a case you’d require providing an auto-response to such a prompts, you can achieve this using the echo command as shown below:
C:>echo Y | Copy TempTest.INI TempTest-new.INI
1 file(s) copied.
C:>
