I am trying to make a script that deletes and copies files to my usb device, but I get the following error.

"This file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is installed, create an association in the Default Programs control panel."

The file is robocopy.exe and it is attached to the script in a folder called CopyToUSB. Here is the code I have...

If,ExistDir,%ProjectTemp%\CopyToUsb,Shellexecute,Hide,cmd.exe,"/C rd /s /q #$q%ProjectTemp%\CopyToUsb#$q"

If,ExistDir,%ProjectTemp%\CopyToUsb,Echo,"%ProjectTemp%\CopyToUsb  Folder can not be deleted",Warn

If,ExistDir,%ProjectTemp%\CopyToUsb,Message,"%ProjectTemp%\CopyToUsb  Folder can not be deleted",Error

If,ExistDir,%ProjectTemp%\CopyToUsb,Halt,"ProjectTemp\CopyToUsb Folder can not be deleted"

DirMake,%ProjectTemp%\CopyToUsb

ExtractAllFiles,%ScriptFile%,CopyToUsb,%ProjectTemp%\CopyToUsb

Shellexecute,Hide,cmd.exe,"/C rd /s /q #$q%pFileBox1%\Boot#$q"

Shellexecute,Hide,cmd.exe,"/C rd /s /q #$q%pFileBox1%\Programs#$q"

Shellexecute,Hide,cmd.exe,"/C rd /s /q #$q%pFileBox1%\sources#$q"

FileDelete,%pFileBox1%\BOOTMGR

FileDelete,%pFileBox1%\CdUsb.Y

FileDelete,%pFileBox1%\grldr

FileDelete,%pFileBox1%\menu.lst

FileDelete,%pFileBox1%\Win7PE.cd

ShellExecute,%OpenHide%,%ProjectTemp%\CopyToUsb\robocopy.exe,"#$q%TargetDir%#$q #$q%pFileBox1% #$q /MIR /FFT"

I get this error on the last line of code. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks!

The last line contains a syntax error.

Remove the space in #$q%pFileBox1% #$q

Oops! Ok, I removed the space, but I'm still getting the same error.

I think it's because you're not setting the %OpenHide% parameter

So, for example, this works fine:

Set,%OpenHide%,Open

ShellExecute,%OpenHide%,%ProjectTemp%CopyToUsbrobocopy.exe,"#$q%TargetDir%#$q #$q%pFileBox1% #$q /MIR /FFT"

That's it... thanks amalux!
