title: Node.js console gets closed immediately after i execute the program from Visual Studio 2012 in Windows 8
body: <p>I have installed Node.js in <strong>Windows 8</strong> PC and installed the Node.js plugin for <strong>Visual Studio 2012</strong>. I executed a basic program from Visual Studio 2012 which just prints a string on console</p>
  
  <pre><code>consol.log("Hi There");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The Node.js console prints "<strong>Hi There</strong>" and immediately terminates itself. Can anyone provide a solution to fix it?</p>
  
  <p>I have gone through a similar question, is there any other way to fix it apart from using <strong><em>setTimeOut()</em></strong> in the code?
