Unfortunately a good and extensive checker doesn't really exist.

The only one I was able to locate is BatCodeCheck, which dates from 2014 and which checks for only a limited number of errors.

Maybe you could try to run the .bat in a sandbox enironment. I haven't tried it myself, but start the cmd.exe in a sandbox programm and then try to execute the bat file.

This might work if all necessary files are present.
