Solved: Using set in CMD

[jpboyrox]

I am trying to get my head round the set command, why does this not work:

if %delete%==y goto y
if %delete%==n goto n

:y
cls 
rd /s/q FOLDER
cls
echo Files Deleted!
pause

:n
cls
echo Files not deleted
pause

If 'n' is selected it skips :y but if 'y' is selected it runs :y and then :n
Why is that and how can i sort it out?

What does this have to do with the set command? You are not even using it.

Batch is a sequential processing scripting language. If you need it to bypass the :N subroutine then you need to put in another goto after your :Y subroutine finishes.

goto :EOF (This would exit the batch file.)

I see you marked this solved but I was hoping for a response to my question.

oh right, I actually can't remember I looked it up on youtube. I thinkot was called the 'set' command in the title. Don't know why
