title: How to start 2 programs simultaneously in windows command prompt
body: <p>I am using Windows 7 64bit</p>
  
  <p>Here is the code snippet I am using to start</p>
  
  <pre><code>@echo off
  call "C:\Program Files (x86)\LOLReplay\LOLRecorder.exe"
  call "G:\League of Legends\lol.launcher.exe"
  exit
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>But unless I close LOLRecorder.exe it won't start my lol.launcher.exe.... basically I want both running and the cmd prompt exit after they start. Whats wrong here? I checked out another stackoverflow answer <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2071408/how-to-run-multiple-batch-files-in-serial-in-windows-command-line-environment">Here</a> but it refers to the same method I am using.</p>
  
  <p>EDIT:</p>
  
  <p>With the start command it just starts 2 terminal windows and nothing starts!</p>
  
  <pre><code>@echo off
  start "C:\Program Files (x86)\LOLReplay\LOLRecorder.exe"
  start "G:\League of Legends\lol.launcher.exe"
  exit
  </code></pre>
