But it is executing something. Mounts an iso then calls an app on the pc to open the iso and view the statement is a third party app.
Makes things faster than running the app over the network share. Works on everybody else. I'll just use chrome for now. Still researching but have bigger fires than myself to put out today.

Batch files are widely regarded as "dangerous" and will be blocked by all sorts of things. When distributing batch files or other scripts as bare files (not in a ZIP or whatever), I recommended renaming them by appending a text file extension, e.g., "foo.bat.txt". Aside from avoided unwanted blocking, it also prevents unexpected execution, allows them to be viewed without downloading in a browser, and may clue in the computer to perform end-of-line translation. -- Ben This e-mail and any files transmitted with it are property of Indiana Members Credit Union, are confidential, and are intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom this e-mail is addressed.
