I have a tex script that creates a .bat file while translating a latex file with MikTex 2.9 x64. I get the error "Can't write on file ....bat". (The same script works with Miktex 2.4 without any questions.)
It seems that the problem is due to the "openout_any" parameter. But neither setting openout_any Windows environment variable to "a", nor adding line "openout_any=a" to miktex\config\texmf-defaults.ini file helps.
What am I to do?

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.
And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Configuration problem. Miktex 2.9. openout_any parameter
Wecome to the forum!
Perhaps post a
minimal working example, so we can test it on our MiKTeX installation, or with TeX Live.

Re: Configuration problem. Miktex 2.9. openout_any parameter
Thank you for your reply. But I have found the solution to the problem.

For Miktex one must use MIKTEX_ALLOWUNSAFEOUTPUTFILES=1 environment variable. Standart openout_any does not work.
