cmd - How can the batch file use the username? -

i want make batch file make this:

set /p username=username: echo %username% > c:/users/%username%/desktop/extramitico/ud1.txt

and says:

the system can not find path specified

why?? please help!

much depends on input, , mentioned, username variable established system , hence poor, if logical, choice.

let's presume use

set /p name=username: echo %name% > c:/users/%name%/desktop/extramitico/ud1.txt

you message if string input name contains illegal characters * or :.

you message if directory c:/users\%name%\desktop\extramitico\ not exist - , note directory-separator \, not / - / used switches.

and message if name input contains spaces or commas , other characters.

so - try

set /p name=username: md "c:\users\%name%\desktop\extramitico" 2>nul echo %name% > "c:\users\%name%\desktop\extramitico\ud1.txt"

where "quoting string" gets on spaces etc. in input (but not illegal characters). 2>nul suppresses 'directory existsmessage frommd`.

and maybe forget set /p statement, , use system-set variable username. depends on quite want do.
