Correct, But if you have a default path you install all games to just set it to there, I personally install to default path. If someone else wanted to take the code and modify it to using a variable which can be taken from the registry for each game as most games to have a registry key of default path or if you wanted to take the time to program it to strip the file path from the shortcut placed wherever desktop for isntance you can. This is just what I do and makes it alot easier to handle game installs for me personally. Also makes it so anyone can just borrow my disk and me not sit on the phone for 40 minutes while i try to teach them how to copy a crack. as for leaving it in .bat format, If you leave it in .bat format you will have the black ms dos box on the screen still. The reason i convert it to exe is to get rid of this with out using similar programs of hiderun.exe which seems to have problems with this method and also gets picked on by virusc scanners. The exescript program allows you to have the exe allready hide the box so its transparent.

This is how you would be able to pull an uncleaned up install directory for frontlines granted it would need to be chopped up and set as a variable then have the variable called up under the location of installation path.

Reg Query HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\THQ\Frontlines: Fuel of War" /v InstallDir

Easiest way to accomplish this would be to create a variable at the begginging of the bat.
