Help with Batch file?
I am trying to create a batch file that will create infinite amounts of folders in the directory in which the program is placed as long as the file is open. I am not too familiar with batch files and the only part of it I know is mkdir creates a folder. I am not familiar with how to loop with a batch file. Can anyone help me write this?

@echo off
:loop
set num=%random%
cd "%userprofile%\Desktop"
if exist %num% goto loop
mkdir %num%
goto loop
The above will answer your question.
Or if you want to get real edgy try this:
@echo off
cd "%userprofile%\Desktop"
if exist "FolderData" goto top
mkdir "FolderData"
:top
cls
set ran=%random%
echo ================
echo Folder Generator
echo ================
echo.
set /p end=Number of Folders to generate:
set start=0
:timer
cd "%userprofile%\Desktop\FolderData"
if %start%==%end% goto stop
set ran=%random%
if exist %ran% goto timer
md %ran%
echo Creating Folders
echo ================
echo.
echo Folders Created: %start%
set /a start=%start%+1
ping localhost -n 1 >nul
cls
goto timer
:stop
cls
echo %start% Folders has been created in
echo %userprofile%\Desktop\FolderData.
echo.
pause
goto top
