You cannot use `%%fname` there. Also you shouldn't use `for /f` over the output of `dir` unless it's absolutely necessary. While it may have worked for this case you get yourself in minor pain with file names that contain spaces or Unicode characters that don't have a representation in the OEM codepage (unless you're using a TrueType font for the console; but that isn't the default, so always expect things to break).
