I'm trying to write a batch file which starts some programs automatically with a delay. because it takes forever for my pc to start and i also get the unresponsiveness because of it.
this is how it looks like right now:
@echo off
TIMEOUT 5
start D:\somepath\someapp.exe
TIMEOUT 50
start "E:\somepath\someapp.exe"
because the last line is surrounded with quotation marks, the 'someapp.exe' didnt got started.
can someone explain why it didnt start the app? the first one however, did got started up.
also, how can i hide the command prompt?
thanks in advance!
