BAT file - question

[Sunny]

I have a question regarding example #5

If my BAT file looks like the following, then everything works as it should

Code Select Expand

exiftool -k -o %%e_images/%%d "folder 1"


My test folder




The problem is when I want to drag and drop a folder into a BAT file then I get an error, the folder jpg_images is created but the files are not moved into it

Code Select Expand

exiftool -k -o %%e_images/%%d %1





What could be the problem?

The problem has nothing to do with the BAT file.  The same thing will happen when dragging and dropping on the command line.  The error message says it all.

Ah, indeed I already know, I thought that this option works a little differently, that in this case pics is the same as DIR. Thanks Phil.
