Batch - B) is unexpected at this time

Trying to edit a registry querying batch file to set the path from the registry's entry. I'm being returned with this error when attempting to run the batch file.

If I input a snippet manually in to command prompt it will read and set the path perfectly.

B) was unexpected at this time

@For /F "Tokens=2* skip=2" B)

in batchfiles you will have to double your %. for example your first line:

@For /F "Tokens=2* skip=2" %%A In ('REG QUERY "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Bohemia Interactive Studio\ArmA 2" /v "MAIN"') Do (set ARMA2PATH=%%B)

Also, you could set the first line to 

@echo off

then you don't have to put an @ to each line
