Basic Batch Question

I have a super simple question about basic batch programming. All I need is a batch program that runs, does absolutely nothing without showing the dos window, then exits.

My Code:

@echo off
exit

The window still pops up for a split second…Any help?

Are you trying to figure out how to make a batch program run silently?

haha yeah it does seem like a really stupid question, but I'll have you know I do know what a batch file is :P

I guess you could call it making it run silently but i'm not trying to make a 1337 h4x0r virus if that's what you're thinking. My problem is Windows is being dumb and on startup is running something (MS Office I think) that trys to open an rbf file but i get a "Windows cant open" message every time I turn my computer on and I dont know where the rbf file is or what task is requesting it so im trying to make a batch handler that will simply open and close so windows shuts up. Hope that made sense…

Oh so you don't need to run it silently…

Find out what process the error message is (cmd > tasklist) and then just put a taskkill command in your batch. I think that should work…
