Non-conforming @Script

Aug

I am using;
Code:
TCC  20.00.25 x64   Windows 7 [Version 6.1.7601]
TCC Build 25   Windows 7 Build 7601  Service Pack 1

This is a new installation, on a new system.

I cannot get the @Script function to work for me. As an example;
Code:
echo %@script[vbscript,dim objShell:set objShell=CreateObject("shell.application"):objShell.FileRun:set objShell=nothing]

does not result in anything, that is, the code does not execute.

It works fine when run as;
Code:
cscript //nologo filerun.vbs
where the contents of filerun.vbs are;
Code:
dim objShell:set objShell=CreateObject("shell.application"):objShell.FileRun:set objShell=nothing

Again, this is just an example.

None of my other @Script code works anymore.

On my previous Vista system, all of my @Script code worked.

Am I missing something simple?

I have installed TCMD20 on another Windows 7 (64-bit) system, and have duplicated the @Script problem.

Can others please verify that @Script does not work properly on their Win7 (64-bit) TCMD20?

Confirmed. Not working on Win7 x64 and Win10 x64
Output: "0"; errorlevel "0". That's all.

EDIT: Even with a bogus command like: echo %@script[vbscript,qwewqeweqwq]

Win7 64-bit has two cscript.exe;
Code:
C:\Windows\System32\cscript.exe
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cscript.exe

Maybe @Script is using the incorrect VBScript engine for 64-bit OS.

I know that @Script worked fine on my Vista 32-bit OS.

My thoughts exactly :-)
That is why I also tested with 32-bit Take Command on 64-bit Windows.
This will call the SysWOW64 version of vbscriupt.dll. Same results.
 
I think it's just broken. Joe, your original example,
Code:
echo %@script[vbscript,dim objShell:set objShell=CreateObject("shell.application"):objShell.FileRun:set objShell=nothing]
does not work in Win7/32 with TCC v20. It does work with TCC versions 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, and with 4NT v8.
 
Vince,
I must have been using a version lower than TCC v20 on my Visita 32-bit, although I know I did have TCC v20 installed.

I just tested with the TCC RT, and got the same fail;
Code:
c:\utils>tccrt filerun.btm

TCC RT  20.00.25 x64   Windows 7 [Version 6.1.7601]

echo 0

I will patiently wait for Rex to make repairs to @Script.
