Batch - IF ELSE Condition for start function executes regardless

In batch scripting, it's important to note that indentation and syntax can play a significant role in how the code is interpreted. If the IF and ELSE conditions are not working as expected, it might be due to incorrect indentation or syntax errors.

Here's an example of how you can use the IF and ELSE conditions in a batch script:

batchCopy code
@echo off

setlocal



set var=1



if %var%==1 (

    echo This is the IF block.

) else (

    echo This is the ELSE block.

)



echo Done.

Make sure you follow these guidelines:

1. Use parentheses to group the code within the IF and ELSE blocks.
2. Indent the code within each block to improve readability.
3. Always use double equal signs (==) for equality comparison within IF statements.

If your batch script is still not working as expected, please provide more details about the code you're using, and I'd be happy to assist you further.
