executing multiple .exe files serially through batch file [duplicate]

Question

I have three .exe files inside a folder and I want to run them serially one after another through a batch file. That means, 2nd .exe file will execute after the operation of 1st .exe file. I have written a file but when I run it, the are not executing serially. My batch file is:

Start ""  ".\a.exe"
Start ""  ".\b.exe"
Start ""  ".\c.exe"

How will I execute these files one after another?

Answer 1

Don't use start if you need to wait until the execution of the exe to execute the next one. start will create a new process and return to the next statement without waiting.

Just use the exe as it is without the start.

So your batch file should be like.

.\a.exe
.\b.exe
.\c.exe
