[john_d]

can u tell me the error the msdos gives u.. try to remove the exit command at the end and replace it with pause to see the error that it gives.

because you got a space in C:\Program Files\Lunentia_World
you need to encapsulate it in "" (quotes)
like this:
COPY "C:\Program Files\Lunentia_World\Window\LGAME_INFO.MIF" "C:\Program Files\Lunentia_World\"

otherwise Copy thinks it must copy C:\Program to the location Files\Lunentia_World


also above the line :ItemB you would need to put a GOTO End otherwise after doing ItemA, ItemB would also be executed.
