Why does the command not work in the bat file, but there are no errors in the command line?

Question

Command line

Here is the command

set NODE_PATH=C:\Program Files\Element2\modules; && cd C:\Program Files\Element2 && nodemon ./index.js -- --config D:\Element2\config.js

When you run it on the command line, everything starts without errors.
But if you push it into a BAT file and run the file, then an error occurs:

D:\Element2>set NODE_PATH=C:\Program Files\Element2\modules;

D:\Element2>nodemon "C:\Program Files\Element2\index.js" -- --config D:\Element2\config.js

Answer 1

Well, it's obvious - the separator is a space. For a space to be considered part of a variable, the text must be enclosed in quotation marks .
And I also forgot to say that a CD cannot change the disk - it only works within one disk - on which the interpreter is running.
there's also a smiley face :rukalitso:

Answer 2

It looks like the quotes in the full path of the file are missing, either in the batch file or in the script itself.
And yet, is it necessary to run in one line through an ampersand? There may be an ambush in this.

Answer 3

set NODE_PATH=%ProgramFiles%\Element2\modules;
cd /D %ProgramFiles%\Element2
nodemon index.js -- --config D:\Element2\config.js
