Command line multiple commands in for loop

[martin.krivos.9]

Hi

i need windows command line to find all files that end with .jpg.pdf and remove the .jpg part so it will be pure .pdf at the end, i have following line
for /R %DIR% %%i in (*.jpg.pdf) do set without=%i:~0,-8% & rename %%i "%%without.pdf"

It should remove last 8 characters and then rename file with .pdf extension for some reason it creates without variable with this content '~0,-8without'

any idea how to execute these two commands in one for loop? the '&' doesnt do the trick for some reason...

Thanks

Hi Martin,
Shouldn't the & be &&?

I think the below command would work for this case.

forfiles /M *.jpg /C "cmd /c rename @file @fname"
