Making a batch file would simply be replacing the file parameter with %1 like the following:

sox %1 temp.wav silence 1 0.1 1%% reverse
sox temp.wav trimmed-%1 silence 1 0.1 1%% reverse

Which would turn your file.wav into trimmed-file.wav.
(Note that in order to escape the percent sign for 1%, you’ll need to use two of them)

Thank you!
It’s so easy to find the solution for A105 series, but not the A215 series.

I used to work at Geek Squad for Best Buy. Standard procedure was to configure a customer’s computer to use the BBY proxy server. Many times the technician, if you can even call them that with a straight face, would forget to remove it. I can’t tell you how many times this caused a problem when they took the computer home.
