Echo a new line in .BAT files

To echo an empty line in batch file, write dot character right after echo command (no space in between!):

@echo off
echo Next line is empty:
echo.
echo Press any key to continue...

Same result:

@echo off
echo Next line is empty: & echo.
echo Press any key to continue...

And in one line:

@echo off
echo Next line is empty: & echo. & echo Press any key to continue...
