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
