I was wondering if there's a native way to send or initiate the save file or even save all files command for all opened programs (or just a selection) in Windows 7 - preferably as batch file.

Maybe similar to this approach (Windows Script Host/WSH).

I'm not looking for a macro tool or any third-party utility, though. (I know there are plenty out there which might be even capable of doing the trick)

So far I could only find information about WSH (which I have no idea yet how to use it) or those external tools.

    Jim - I've written many scripts that use dynamic VBS and SendKeys functions using batch that runs natively on Windows but when you say you need to use the **save** or **save as** functions **"for all opened programs"** then this gets difficult as each program may have different hotkeys that need press to perform this operation. See here for one of these scripts I've written as an example: http://superuser.com/questions/1107385/how-to-open-a-batch-program-in-fullscreen-without-scrollbar/1108032#1108032 – Vomit IT - Chunky Mess Style Aug 19 '16 at 03:06
