.BAT files are MS-DOS batch files (interpreted by COMMAND.COM).

"Modern" (Windows NT era, over two decades) equalivent is .CMD files, interpreted by CMD.EXE.

You should be safe to mass rename all .bat files to .cmd.

.bat files are limited to 8+3 file name limit and longer pathes must be shortened.

Naming batch files .bat (instead of .cmd) is imposing other limitations and asking problems. If software is not intended to be MS-DOS, Windows 3.x or Windows 95/98/ME compatible, then it's not smart move and should be fixed (I understand nostalgy for MS-DOS, but it's a bad way showing apprecation to it)
