What program is missing?

I got the error below while running a pre-written cmd file on Windows.

'mt' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

The use case is: 

mt -manifest <... something else....>

It's obvious that it needs some mt, but I can't figure what mt really is, so I could install the thing.

Could anyone tell me what this is or where to get it?

Thanks

  • Given the context of a batch file, it's probably a backup script, so you're probably looking for this:

    Or if it's a script from a dev project, it probably refers to this:

    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa375649(v=vs.85).aspx

    Again, what does the script do?
