'Running links to batch files from another batch file and use the shortcut layout properties
I have a set of 7 batch files I keep running all night at work, monitoring directories and files. I have shortcuts created and used the Layout tab to arrange and resize them so I can still use my desktop. I just created an extremely simple batch file I use to start the other 7. But when I run it all the new windows open on top of each other. I can't figure out how to use the Layouts I have set up for each shortcut so the command shells open in the positions and sizes I need.
"start everything.bat"
@echo off
start cmd /c call "j:\network drive with spaces\shortcuts\batch file1.bat.lnk"
start cmd /c call "j:\network drive with spaces\shortcuts\batch file2.bat.lnk"
start cmd /c call "j:\network drive with spaces\shortcuts\batch file3.bat.lnk"
start cmd /c call "j:\network drive with spaces\shortcuts\batch file4.bat.lnk"
start cmd /c call "j:\network drive with spaces\shortcuts\batch file5.bat.lnk"
start cmd /c call "j:\network drive with spaces\shortcuts\batch file6.bat.lnk"
start cmd /c call "j:\network drive with spaces\shortcuts\batch file7.bat.lnk"
Is it possible to get the new windows how and where I need them, or am I pretty much stuck just running the shortcuts manually? This is running on Windows Server 2012, and like I said it's at work so I don't have access to install anything, or use any 3rd party apps.
