DOS/Win9x's command.com or Win2k+'s cmd.exe? Since that makes a world of difference, could you please clarify that in an edit of your question? –Mihai Limbășan Apr 9 '09 at 14:58 add a comment| 6 Answers 6 active oldest votes up vote 182 down vote accepted Check the errorlevel in an if statement, and then exit /b (exit the batch file only, not the entire cmd.exe process) for values other than 0. same-executable-over-and-over.exe /with different "parameters" if %errorlevel% neq 0 exit /b %errorlevel% If you want the value of the errorlevel to propagate outside of your batch file if %errorlevel% neq 0 exit /b %errorlevel% but if this is inside a for it gets a bit tricky.
