INITIAL GLANCE THROUGH YOUR CODE WITHOUT LOOKING TOO HARD

I see you're still using the original code from http://ss64.org/viewtopic.php?id=2117
Line 158 should probably read ::Playing instead of \\Playing - that would have broken things if that line was ever reached
There's a serious lack of quotes around your if conditionals that breaks the menus if the user doesn't enter anything

IMPRESSIONS UPON FIRST RUN

Interesting that throwing a = in a REN statement works; I wouldn't have expected it to
On a related note, if the file isn't called Power_Batch_Engine_Real.bat, the script crashes

TERMS

The TOS is too long; I have to scroll to read the whole thing
A few spelling errors - "liscensed" should be "licensed," "reccomend" should be "recommend," and "Miss use" should be "Misuse"

MAIN MENU

"Standerd" should be "Standard"
Similar options should be grouped together; all the Project-related options should be together, all the Engine-related options should be together, and all the Manual-related options should be together
```
////Power Batch Engine////
Standard License
v1.0

1) New Project
2) Load Project
3) Run Project
4) Export Project
5) Delete Project

6) Engine Manual
7) Error Manual

8) Refresh Engine
9) Clean Engine
10) Uninstall Engine
11) Exit Engine
```
This is just a suggested remodel, but you should be able to see what I'm going for.
"Play" should be changed to "Run" - "Play" implies you're making a game, while "Run" includes work-related scripts

NEW PROJECT

So it's just a wrapper for Notepad? What if I want to use Notepad++, UltraEdit, or some other third-party text editor?
Since only saying No to opening Notepad throws a 301 error, you can just skip the error and immediately return to the menu instead

EXPORT PROJECT

I'm still surprised that REN ignores = characters
Export runs regardless of whether or not the give title exists
An error gets thrown when you try to export a file with the same name of a bat file that already exists, but cls hides it
The & in "License&Info.txt" breaks the redirect and so the text gets sent to an extensionless file called License
While distributing the pro script is technically a felony, you might want to reword the warning so that it sounds more official; I can't take it seriously with the way it's currently written. Reference 17 U.S. Code § 506
You need to move your file exist code to above the REN command for it to work; right now, :exp never gets called

DELETE PROJECT

The // in "/No .txt or anything after/" should be () instead; it is confusing as currently written
If you enter an invalid name when deleting an exported file, you get a success message because "else goto deltextno" is invalid syntax and gets skipped
Same thing for entering an invalid name when deleting a non-exported file, but since the next section is :deltextno, the code works by accident
Your code cannot handle file names that contain spaces

LOAD PROJECT

Loading a .bat file runs it instead of opening it in Notepad - I assume this is a mistake since otherwise there is no reason for the "Play Project" option
The ping commands do nothing except delay the opening of the file

CLEAN ENGINE

See http://ss64.org/viewtopic.php?id=2117
chat.bat isn't created by the engine, so you're deleting some random file that the user probably wants - don't do that
I would expect the variables that get set while running the engine (%op%, %k%, %dp%, etc.) to be cleared

REFRESH ENGINE

Maybe if the script is run by double-clicking this does something (like resetting the local variables), but when the script is run from the command line, this feature doesn't do anything

PLAY PROJECT

If you have a .txt file and a .bat file with the same name, the .bat file gets run if you state that it is a non-exported file
There is no reason for a 7-second pause when converting the .txt

OTHER NOTES

Reusing the %op% variable results in unexpected behavior when the user doesn't enter anything for any menu that uses that variable when the variable has been set before

Impressive :Terms section. Keep it up. Some explanation of what this code is for wouldn't hurt.

I agree. I usually don't review code if I don't know in advance what supposedly the code does{. Anyway, I started to read this code until I reach these lines:

goto terms

:terms

and then suspended the reading at that point...

I noticed you were trying for awhile to achieve some progress with this coder in a very systemic elaborate way on several forums. I wonder if there's measurable progress?

Admittedly, his grammar and spelling have improved.

Consider setting the rule to always spellcheck your code before posting. Text style is another beast to tackle, as it takes major part of your code.

ROFL!

Spelling rants in a written medium is a waste of time and energy.

Typos and syntax errors in code are the important things to worry about.
