Anyone know what's up with nircmdc.exe?
« on: August 03, 2009, 07:07 PM »
I notice there's an additional exe file in the NirCmd download called nircmdc.exe.  The only line of info about it I can find is in the change log: nircmdc.exe - console version of NirCmd.

Zero mention in the .chm file.  When I try to run commands in a command window using it I get:

For more information about using this utility,
read the help file - nircmd.chm
or visit NirSoft Web site at http://www.nirsoft.net

and of course I can find no mention of it at all in the help file.. there's no search mechanism in the .chm.. nuthin'.

Is this obsolete or what?

it's the same as nircmd.exe except that:

... in the console version, all error messages goes to the console window, instead of using a message box.
-website

in other words, both these commands below produce the same result
nircmd.exe cdrom open e:
nircmdc.exe cdrom open e:
