Two softwares - two programs - one trigger

[Oz Perrenoud]

Hello!

I tryed to open two softwares on the same trigger.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\ChamSys Ltd\MagicQ PC\mqqt.exe" & "C:\Program Files\Capture 2022\Capture 2022.exe"

The second, after the &, only opens when I close the first, no matter what order they are in, may I fix this?

Thanks,
Oz

@oz-perrenoud you may need to create a batch file for this use this link for a walk though https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.makeuseof.com/tag/launch-multiple-programs-single-shortcut-using-batch-file/amp/

@oz-perrenoud, here's another idea for you. Put "start " at the beginning, like this:

start C:\Windows\System32\notepad.exe && C:\Windows\System32\calc.exe

The "start" command exits right after it spawns Notepad so it runs the next command, calc.exe immediately.

I tried it and it worked for me.
