title: Apache Airflow to manage Windows Batchs files execution
body: <p>My boss asked me to use Airflow to manage many batch file executions on two Windows Servers.
  His concern is that he doesn’t like the e-mail system for reporting each batch execution at the end, indicating success or problems.
  He wants a “cool” web page to manage and start batch files from there if need be (really rare, only when there is a failure you have to manually start a batch file).</p>
  <p>I did setup Airflow using WSL2, it is working, and I’m able to launch a Windows batch from Airflow. The problem is that it always report errors (red dot in the Airflow interface).
  I did search a lot, and I didn’t find anyone who seems to be using Airflow for Windows Servers batch control.</p>
  <p>I must mention that the batch files mainly just transfer files from local servers to other clients via FTP.</p>
  <p>It seems to me that Airflow is not the solution here, and it is like using a tank to kill a bee…</p>
  <p>I’m I right? I want to make it clear to my boss that this is spending money and hour of work on something that is not needed here.</p>
  <p>Please share your thought! Thanks!</p>
