run 2 or more cmd command using system() in C++ [duplicate]

Question

I want to do two steps in my c++ program using system().

1. open the folder system("cd /d ...")
2. run another program.exe

However, it seems like when I run step2, the folder opened in step1 is already closed. What can I do to make sure that the folder won't be closed, so that I can use another cmd call to run .exe?

Thanks!

Answer 1

you can use

system("command1; command2; command3");

or

system("command1 && command2 && command3");
