I try to use with "else" command but I get the foloowing error:
'else' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
My code is:
if "zz"=="TRUE" (
copy /a zz + /a ee=/a zz
)
else (
copy /a e + /a %TMP%=/a e
)
What the problem?

The
else
needs to be on the same "line" (a) as theif
. Remove the new-line before theelse
like so:Please also note that
"zz"=="TRUE"
will never evaluate totrue
- I suspect you meant"%zz%"=="TRUE"
?(a): This isn't always a good description, though it's what the Microsoft documents use. Same command may have been better, and putting
)
andelse
on a different line breaks it into two commands.
