Time taken for batch file to execute

Type:
VBScript, Batch/Command file

Category:
Batch, Uptime, VBScript, Time
This script uses a small vbscript line to time a batch file. You can Start / Stop the timer and count how many secs, mins, hours between the two times - they can be on different days if needed and span midnight as it records date & time.

Another option is to use

If you replace the subroutines section with this it will make the date and time within a VBScript. Swap the words day( and month( to get it in mm/dd/yyyy format instead.
