I came up with the batch file below, and it is working great. However, I would like to know if there is a way to code it so that if a program is already running, it would skip it and launch the next one. I hope this makes sense. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

```
@echo off    
pushd    
start "" cmd /c cscript "C:\Users\User\Desktop\Work.vbs"    
start "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15" Outlook.exe    
start "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15" Lync.exe    
start "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application" chrome.exe    
runas /savecred /user:"DOMAIN\User_Adm" "C:\Program Files (x86)\VMware\Infrastructure\Virtual Infrastructure Client\Launcher\VpxClient.exe"    
runas /savecred /user:"DOMAIN\User_Adm" "mmc.exe \"My_Tools.msc\"

```
