Do batch files always start with @echo off
- Yes
- No
Correct Answer

A. Yes

Explanation

Batch files commonly start with the "@echo off" command to prevent the command prompt from displaying the commands being executed. This is done to make the output of the batch file cleaner and more user-friendly. By starting with "@echo off", the batch file will run without showing each command as it is executed.
