It's fragile to depend on being started by Explorer or a shell link. For example, if the batch is run from an existing cmd shell, then it runs with cmd's current working directory. Or another process could run the batch file with a different working directory. If you actually want the batch to find the scripts relative to its own directory, then it should use the %0 environment variable, which references the fully-qualified path of the batch file. Getting just the directory, i.e. its [d]rive and [p]ath, is expressed as %~dp0. Note that this path includes a trailing backslash.
