Batch - Resolve relative path

My batch scripts are located in the following directory:

\\test\public\windows\scripts\32\test.bat

I'm trying to get the path of this folder: \test\public\windows\logs I've tried using %~dp0 in order to get the path of the script, and i've tried:

SET REL_PATH=..\..\

The thing is that it's not showing me this folder.

Solution

SET REL_PATH=..\..\

path points to the path according to you, to verify where it is taking from, please make a

echo %CD%

it will tell you the path the system is looking at.

then set the relative path from %CD% to the path of your script.

Please comment if you get stuck after doing this.

For example:

echo %CD%

gives C:\windows\system32

and you want to execute batch file at c:\test\public\windows\scripts\32\test.bat

you will need to do

SET REL_PATH=%CD%\..\..\test\public\windows\scripts\32\

To move to this path do a:

cd /d %REL_PATH%

To solve UNC path do PUSHD and POPD:

@echo off
pushd \\test\public\windows\scripts\32\

REM do your work
call test.bat

popd
