@demha - try creating a shortcut to the folder and add to calibre via Windows/File Explorer Send to - you'll need to put a shortcut to caiibre.exe into your Send To folder

Should be easier/faster than messing with bat files, especially if your tutorial folders are siblings, select them create shortcuts somewhere, select the shortcuts and Send To calibre en masse.

No need to keep the folder shortcut files once they're in a calibre library.

Added : actually you can just drag drop the shortcuts into the booklist
