Why you need it? • Tech support increasing productivity. • There is more speed • Due to not using a lot of resources • The computers can be set to use the command line based code through the use of batch files. • A batch file is a file that contains the set of commands that a user would normally enter to process a task. If you do not want a user to have a record of what was done to fix an issue it could also increase profitability.
