What is a bat file and how do I open a bat file?

The BAT file format is implemented for DOS batch files that contain code for initializing and executing certain built-in Windows applications and resources. Sequential lines of code contained in a BAT file is normally implemented for running installed applications, built-in programs and maintenance utilities in Windows systems. These BAT files can be created by using Microsoft Notepad among other text editors, and a BAT file can be created, also with these text editing applications, in order to automate certain repetitive tasks that may be performed by some installed Windows applications. Files affixed with the .bat extension can also be opened and edited using Microsoft Notepad among other text editors.
