Hi there people

Quick question that one of you geniuses will know the answer straight off the cuff. I'm a very novice Batch programmer.

I have a Windows 8 machine as my Home Theatre PC running XBMC, Sickbeard and Sabnzbd.

I have a little batch that, initially opens explorer (to get into the desktop from metro) then opens the above programs. The problem is that i want the Xmbc app to open last and to stay on top. I have it initialising last yet sometimes the sickbeard and Sabnzbd will open on top. Is there a line of code or a command to "stay on top"?

Much Appreciated.

Use ping to allow each program time to load, and the last one will remain on top.

Code: Select all

start "" "program1"
ping localhost -n 5 >nul
start "" "program2"
ping localhost -n 5 >nul
start "" "program3"

Also, see if the application itself has option to make it stay on top, set it and when you run the application it will be on top.
