I would like to run a cmd.exe that would evaluate environment variables at call time instead of when it parses the command. If I set the BASE to 2 and echoing it, I should see the number 2, although running this script does not properly set the base.
Expected Behavior:
C:\Users\schristo>cmd.exe /X /C "set BASE=2 && echo %BASE% && pause"
2
Press any key to continue . . .
Actual behavior:
C:\Users\schristo>cmd.exe /X /C "set BASE=2 && echo %BASE% && pause"
%BASE%
Press any key to continue . . .
