Generate random password in batch (command prompt)

If you do a lot of scripting then this snippet maybe useful. I use this snippet to change the default password for Splunk Universal Forwarder installations, from the default to random. You don’t actually need to record the password for the forwarder - and it’s easy enough to reset if you do.
@echo off set pass= set s=abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ1234567890 set m=0 :loop set /a n=%random% %% 62 call set pass=%pass%%%s:~%n%,1%% set /a m=m+1 if not %m%==32 goto loop: echo %pass%
