Explanation:
The script displays a menu with options to list files, copy a file, delete a file, or exit.
It uses conditional statements (if and else) based on the user's choice.
dir: Lists files in the current directory.
copy "%sourceFile%" "%destinationFolder%": Copies a specified file to a specified destination.
del "%fileToDelete%": Deletes a specified file.
The script loops back to the menu after each operation until the user chooses to exit.
This example demonstrates how to create a simple interactive menu system for file management using Batch scripting. Keep in mind that Batch may not be the ideal choice for complex applications, and other scripting languages like PowerShell or Python might be more suitable for advanced tasks.
