I changed the tag, but did you mean in a Windows batch file, as indicated by the title and the text in the question, or a bash script? — chepner

Although I don't know bash, this is the way to store a list of anything in a variable in Batch:

set Array=adb shell pm list packages -3
for %%v in (%Array%) do echo %%v

To group several words in the same element, enclose they in quotes:

set Array=adb "shell pm" "list packages -3"

In this case you may use this form in order to eliminate the quotes:

for %%v in (%Array%) do echo %%~v

I show you how to iterate on the values. The echo command just show each iterated value, so you must change it by the command you want to execute. I don't know what is the command you want to execute (I don't know bash, remember? ;-)

Please avoid backticks... these were in use in the middle age. In the 21st century we use $(...) instead.

I am getting error like array is not defined as internal or external command in batch file.
