How to automatically close cmd window after batch file execution?

Question

I\'m running a batch file that has these two lines:

start C:\\Users\\Yiwei\\Downloads\\putty.exe -load \"MathCS-labMachine1\"
\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Xmi         


        

Answer 1

Just try /s as listed below.

As the last line in the batch file type:

exit /s

The above command will close the Windows CMD window.

/s - stands for silent as in (it would wait for an input from the keyboard).
