I'm trying to get integer of free disk space in Batch file. This is a my (very) simple code.
@echo off
wmic logicaldisk get freespace >> freespace.log
exit
But output in freespace.log file.
FreeSpace
9772687360
57401442304
7346626560
0
0
I need to pick integer only and summation. After summation output like this.
74520756224
I search on Google as my best but I can't find solutions. Please help me:)
Here is an exact solution using hybrid batch and powershell. It really should be done with pure powershell, vbscript, or jscript.
The non-intuitive use of tokens and the IF statement are to compensate for the weird interaction between FOR /F and the unicode output of WMIC.
@echo off
setlocal enableDelayedExpansion
set /a freeSpace=0
for /f "skip=1 tokens=1,2" %%A in ('wmic logicaldisk get freespace') do (
if "%%B" neq "" for /f %%N in ('powershell !freeSpace!+%%A') do (
set freeSpace=%%N
)
)
echo freeSpace=%freeSpace%
Use below code. Try replacing the caption
text with deviceid
if it shows ?
or blank.
@echo off
setlocal
set drive=C
set free=?
rem Note: WMIC will output unicode text
wmic logicaldisk where (caption = "%drive%:") get freespace>"%temp%\free.tmp"
for /f %%A in ('type "%temp%\free.tmp"') do (set free=%%A)
echo Free space: %free% bytes
rem if exist "%temp%\free.tmp" del "%temp%\free.tmp"
I second @dbenham's recommendation to switch to PowerShell (or at least VBScript or JScript). However, if you want to stick with batch and don't need exact numbers you could do something like this:
@echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
for /f %%v in ('wmic logicaldisk get freespace ^| findstr /r "[0-9]"') do (
set val=%%v
set val=!val:~-6!
set /a sum+=val
)
echo !sum!
endlocal
The line set val=!val:~-6!
removes the last 6 digits from each value. That way you can calculate with Megabytes instead of Bytes, but (obviously) lose some precision, because the value is truncated (and not rounded correctly).
Here is a pure batch solution that can handle numbers greater than ~ 2G:
@echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
set /A "SUMMEG=0" & set /A "SUMONE=0"
set /A "NUM=6" & set "ZER=000000"
for /F "tokens=2 delims==" %%F in ('
wmic LOGICALDISK GET FreeSpace /VALUE
') do (
for %%G in (%%F) do (
set "ONE=%ZER%%%G"
for /F "tokens=* delims=0" %%H in ("!ONE:~,-%NUM%!") do set "MEG=%%H"
for /F "tokens=* delims=0" %%H in ("!ONE:~-%NUM%!") do set "ONE=%%H"
set /A "SUMMEG+=MEG" & set /A "SUMONE+=ONE"
)
)
if not "!SUMONE:~,-%NUM%!"=="" (set /A "SUMMEG+=!SUMONE:~,-%NUM%!")
set "SUMONE=%ZER%!SUMONE!" & set "SUMONE=!SUMONE:~-%NUM%!"
for /F "tokens=* delims=0" %%H in ("%SUMMEG%%SUMONE%") do set "FRE=%%H"
endlocal & if "%FRE%"=="" (set "FRE=0") else (set "FRE=%FRE%")
echo %FRE%
