How do I insert a time delay to batch files in Windows 10?

Nothing works. Wait, sleep, timeout, delay, none of it works except pause which would be really stupid to say "SYSTEM STARTUP" press any key... "COMPLETE"

Define "batch files".

Try:

timeout /t <seconds> /nobreak > NUL

Try:

timeout /t <seconds> /nobreak > NUL 

It says "Windows can not find the file specified."

Are you replacing <seconds> with a number, like:

timeout /t 5 /nobreak > NUL 

for a five second delay?

Oh, I forgot to remove the <>.
