I have a batch file that starts an app with a lot of command-line parameters:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DevServer\11.0\WebDev.WebServer40.exe" /port:1672 /path:"C:\Code.Net\My App\Iteration 6\REL_6.8.806_PerfEnhanceV\Fusion\Code\CC.Fusion\CC.Fusion.Services" /vpath:"/FusionServices" The problem is that when I run the batch file, the DOS window stays up until the command completes and I would like it to go away. So I tried using the start command, but placing it in front, like this:
start "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\DevServer\11.0\WebDev.WebServer40.exe" /port:1672 /path:"C:\Code.Net\My App\Iteration 6\REL_6.8.806_PerfEnhanceV\Fusion\Code\CC.Fusion\CC.Fusion.Services" /vpath:"/FusionServices" But I get an error stating that Invalid switch - "/port:1672"
I have also tried escaping the double quotes, but I was not successful.
How do I fix that?

To create a Windows batch file, follow these steps: Open a text file, such as a Notepad or WordPad document. Add your commands, starting with @echo [off], followed by, each in a new line, title [title of your batch script], echo [first line], and pause. Save your file with the file extension BAT, for example, test.
In computing, start is a command of the IBM OS/2, Microsoft Windows and ReactOS command-line interpreter cmd.exe (and some versions of COMMAND.COM) to start programs or batch files or to open files or directories using the default program.
Open the folder containing the batch file. Right-click the batch file and select the Copy option. Use the Windows key + R keyboard shortcut to open the Run command.
An extra pair of rabbits' ears should do the trick.
start "" "C:\Program... START regards the first quoted parameter as the window-title, unless it's the only parameter - and any switches up until the executable name are regarded as START switches.
