Solve : Why does batch file wait before it runs next cmnd??

Answer»

Have created a very simple batch file thus:

"C:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" http://www.google.com
"c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" http://www.hotmail.com

What I wish to occur is for 2 browser windows to open in immediate succession (effectively, simultaneously). However before it will open the second webpage, the first webpage has to be closed.

1. Why is this?
2. Is there any way around this to make it do what I require?

Thanks for any HELP GIVEN Try changing your batch file to:

start "c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" http://www.google.com

start "c:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe" http://www.hotmail.com
