windows script to run after a specific time

Question

I am wondering if there is any command for windows script that makes the execution of the script halt for some time before continuing executing it?

e.g: run the first two commands in a script, wait 10 seconds then continue executing

Thanks

Answer 1

I guess you are looking for timeout command.

@echo off

command1
REM wait for 10 seconds before executing command2
timeout /t 10
command2

Hope this helps.
