Would Windows Powershell in this case work for you (as mentioned in my previous email)? For example, to download a ZIP file and extract it, you could use a script like this that downloads Tomcat 8.0.8 x64 ZIP file and extract it to a "work" subfolder: [[[ try { # Add "System.IO.Compression.FileSystem" assembly so we can extract ZIP archives. # Note: This requires .Net 4.5 or higher (included since Windows 8 / Server 2012) Add-Type -AssemblyName System.IO.Compression.FileSystem # Work folder where we download and extract files. $workFolder = Join-Path $pwd "work" # Remove the work folder if it exists, then (re-)create it. If (Test-Path $workFolder) { Remove-Item $workFolder -Recurse } (New-Item $workFolder -ItemType directory) | Out-Null $downloadUrl = "http://apache.openmirror.de/tomcat/tomcat-8/v8.0.8/bin/apache-tomcat-8.0.8-windows-x64.zip"; $downloadPath = Join-Path $workFolder "MyTomcatDownload.zip" Write-Host "Downloading $downloadUrl to $downloadPath ..." Write-Host "" # Note: "Invoke-WebRequest http://xxx -OutFile xxx" will read the whole content to memory, then writing it to disk. (New-Object System.Net.WebClient).DownloadFile($downloadUrl, $downloadPath) # Extract the ZIP archive to the current directory. Write-Host "Extracting ZIP archive..." Write-Host "" [System.IO.Compression.ZipFile]::ExtractToDirectory($downloadPath, $workFolder) Write-Host "Finished." } catch { Write-Host ("Exception: " + $_.Exception.GetType().FullName) -ForegroundColor Red Write-Host ("Message: " + $_.Exception.Message) -ForegroundColor Red } ]]] To run the script if it is saved as "MyScript1.ps" in the current directory, you can use the following command (setting ExecutionPolicy is required to allow to run scripts in the current session): Powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned .\MyScript.ps1 Hope this helps.
