No, that helps me very little. In fact, all your screen caps managed to cut off just enough to give me the full picture.
But what's clear is that something is preventing the .bat script from creating new files within the game folder. Whether that be folder permissions or antivirus/windows defender or powershell no doing what it needs to/suppose to. But the unique thing about your case is, there's no error message when it's unable to. If powershell isn't installed or not available, it should have said that. If powershell doesn't have permission to write the file, it should have said that. If the .bat can't echo out to the directory, it should have said that. It's like your system (or that folder) is explicitly configured to both prevent you from writing things to that directory AND suppose any useful warning/error messages.
This is one of those cases where it's hard to diagnose without being there because, as I've said, nothing about you or your system is giving me the full message. It's almost like you or your system is intentionally doing something that it's hiding from both you and/or me. And that sets my security senses on high alert.
But for now, check the usual suspects.
- Make sure the folder is writable by other processes. (Permissions are correct. Read only flag is not set, etc.)
- Make sure no antivirus and/or windows defender is stopping certain actions from happening
- Make sure powershell exists, is executable and runs without error.
