I try to make a self-copy bat file.

I try to make a self-copy bat file.
but it only copy to the next folders.
here is the code.

@echo off
dir /b /a:d > tmp
for /f %%c in (tmp) do (copy /y "%0" "%%c")
for /f %%d in (tmp) do (start "%%d\%~n0.exe")
del /f /q tmp
exit

why it doesn't work in the below folder?

In the third line you are starting a .exe file, but the batch script will have the extension .CMD

Are the contents of tmp correct? is the copy working?
What do you see if you replace the START with ECHO?
