Answer 1

@echo off
setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion & set n=0
for /f "delims=" %%a in ('dir /b /A-D "*.bat"') do (
   (echo "%%a" | FIND /I "%~nx0" 1>nul) || (
       set "f=%%a" & set "f[!n!]=!f!" & set /a "n+=1"
   )
)
set /a c=%random% %% n
echo start !f[%c%]!

Answer 2

Say 1000 is the number of your abcX.bat files. Then this will do the trick:

SET /a rand=%RANDOM%*1000/32768+1
CALL abc%rand%.bat
