I don't think there's any reason why CF 8 shouldn't be able to run batch files per se under 2008 R2. You might try running the batch files using that user account to see if there are any problems. When you say the batch files work just fine outside of CF, it isn't clear what user account you're using for testing. > Additionally they are having issues with Custom Tags (CFX Tags C++).

Download and install the appropriate Visual C++ Redistributable Library for whatever version of VC++ was used to compile the tags: http://www.google.com/search?q=visual+c%2B%2B+redistributable&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&client=firefox-a&rlz=1R1GGGL_en___US346 > Are custom tags very popular in CF 8 and Cf 9? They're still fairly popular, yes. But usually they're written in CFML nowadays instead of C++. C++ custom tags aren't so popular because they're platform-specific.
