A batch file is the text file that contains a series of commands that MS-DOS carries out. A batch file is created by COPY CON command after specifying a file name by using extension as .BAT in DOS mode.

Can a file with a weird extension but with batch file code be read using another batch file?

Nope, the format of a file is a vital part of a successful batch file. Even if a file with an unknown file format contains working batch file code in it, a batch file will still not be able to read it because of its foreign file extension. If you want the batch file to be able to read the foreign file, then you can set it to rename the mutated file to .bat format and then read it for it to work. Example: @Echo off REN File.Foreign File.bat CALL File.bat exit
