WinBatch function is not working in newer version
Keywords: versions backwards compatible
Winbatch upgrades are always backwards compatible. Occasionally, commands may change slightly when major version changes are made. The answer returned may be different due to the fact that the question the function is asking has changed.
For example, an old version may have tested for, "Did the DirRemove succeed?" While the newer version might test for, "Is the Directory now gone?"
It's a good idea to read the file, "Improvements and Fixes.txt" in your WinBatch directory, to determine what changes have been made to the functions. You can open the file with your favorite editor, and search through the file for the keyword.
