Use function _PathSplit to get the drive, path, filename and extension of a file.

Hi,

you can complicate it in any order, depending on how often you use it and ...

The basic way would be to assign the directory to a variable:

$FileDir = "C:UsersrobertDocumentsRainmeterSkinsGIFDownloadFileEarthTemperatureDownloadFileEarthTemperature"

or one for $fileDirbase and $fileDirTarget.

That already save some typewriting, but your finally solution depends on your task.

best regards, Reinhard

Edit: If you really ment the "current path" (where the script is in) you can leave out the path

@ScriptDir, look in the Help file.
