thanks
I have both Steam setup and the batch file, but when I double-click the batch file with this code, command setup pops up and closes just as fast as it appears and nothing happens afterward. Does someone know why this is? It doesn't even say that the file type is unsupported.
I am on windows 10 right now if that affects anything.

Unfortunately, you cannot fix this issue. It is the result of your computer running the script off of a network drive. The way this is normally resolved is to change some things in regedit, which requires admin to access. And no, you cannot run it with the command above. Especially if the UNC error occurs.
