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.
