2.4. Editing the autoexec.bat
The file ‘autoexec.bat’ is a standard file in the Windows system. Any command that can be
executed from the command prompt can also be put in this ‘batch file’. Whenever the control
is started or rebooted, the system will first look for the special batch file ‘autoexec.bat’. Any
command that is written down there will be executed by the system automatically.
Common tasks for such a file can be to copy files to or from the flash memory. In the
standard file, one task is implemented: activate the Delem application. Other tasks can be
added if required.
To enable fast editing of this batch file, the control is equipped with the application Notepad, it
is located in the directory \Hard Disk\WCE-Tools. To edit the Autoexec.bat, start this
application.
Note
:
Upon delivery of the control or after installation of new software, the file ‘autoexec.bat’ may
be set to ‘read-only’ for safety purposes. If that is the case, it cannot be edited. See section
2.3 on how to change file properties.
