Batch-file not working: PATH-problem?

[DaniëlRie]

Hello,

I wrote a Batch-file in order to use bluetooth with one click in stead of 2,
but recently it didn't work anymore.

Here is the Batch-file:
@echo off
start D:\bluetooth\BTTray.lnk
start D:\bluetooth\TosBtMng.lnk

I used .lnk-files, because I coulnd't find out how to insert spaces in a
Batch-file (like Program Files: it reads Program and the Files it ignores, so
it can't find the path. Later I found out that it could be solved by putting
the complete path between"").

The problem is:
when I run the Batch-file it opens cmd, but then just shows the path of
where the Batch-file is located: when copy the file to the C; I just get path
C: in cmd. When I use it in path D:\bluetooth it just shows that path as
starting point in Cmd.

Before it would run the files and Bluetooth would function afterwards: now:
nothing.

I did install Java SDK and had to ad the Bin-folder of Java to the PATH in
the System Variables under Environment Variables. At first I just cleared the
PATH and had only the path of the Java-bin-folder. Later I found out I had
done something wrong, so I added severall paths as shown below.

My PATH is now:
C:\windows\system32;C:\windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\program
files\java\jdk1.6.0_10\bin
In the user Variables there is no PATH.

Does anyone know the answer? I know it's not a major problem, but it bugs me
and keeps me "out of control".

@echo off
start "D:\bluetooth\BTTray.lnk" "D:\bluetooth\BTTray.lnk"
start "D:\bluetooth\TosBtMng.lnk" "D:\bluetooth\TosBtMng.lnk"

I'm affraid the problem still remains: when I open the batch-file it just
opens Cmd and dispays thepath from where I opened it. Nothing more.

What do you mean it displays the path where you opened it?
In the prompt> ?

Run the script without echo off and paste what it says here. Paste the
script too.

See if anybody can tell you the default PATH for Vista is. I do not have a
Vista machine to hand.
