  You can try this program:

  Use the deep Scan option. It may take some time.

  The System File Checker can repair some of the files in there, but probably not all.

  It's probably at least some of the files that have been overwritten. so I would say the the more safe thing to do is to reinstall Windows.

  If you have used Windows Explorer (computer) to create the directory in question (C:\KindleGen\) and extract the files in this directory...

  Open a command prompt.

  Type:

  CD \KindleGen

  Type:

  DIR

• How do you do the command prompt window stay open after running a command?

  OK, I feel stupid asking this, because I knew the answer before. I learn Visual C++ programming. The book I learn to write C++ and past then in details on the writing of the GUI from Visual C++ part. The book that I market me through compilation and to make an exe file in a cpp file, and then he said: go to the directory in Explorer and double click on the exe file. I do, and the command prompt appears a quick second before closing down. The example in the book shows the output, and the writer obviously has his guest configured to pause after executing an exe file.

  I just set up my guest to do the same thing, so I can at least see the results. I know that running the exe I wrote, but I would like to see the output for less than a second.

  I don't know how you code this. But if it's like a normal batch or whatever it is command line related.

  Follow these steps to use a switch defined by the user at the end of the script.

  To pause a file of DOS commands under Windows XP, continue to the next command, you can use the PAUSE command. Make request to the user with the text:

  Press any key to continue. . .

  Then the batch file is waiting for the user to press a button. However, if you want to pause a batch file and display anything? Simply redirect the results to no one as follows:

  pause > null

  Given that it is perhaps not very useful (how will the user know they need to press a key to continue the batch file?) you display a different prompt. Issue a command with your desired guest ECHO, and then issue the break preceding > no command.

  For example, to pause a batch file of Windows XP with the prompt "Press ENTER to run the command", use the following commands:

  echo press ENTER to run the command
  pause > null

• How to hide the command prompt window when using exec system

• Execution of multiple lines of command at the command prompt (windows)

  Hello

  I'm vascular using the command prompt in the windows to try to send a command to the microcontroller that is connected through TCP connection.

  I am able to use the normal cmd.exe to send the command but I am unable to send the command all successfully using labview.

  The Vi. I use the exec.vi system found in the labview connectivity section.

  Basically, I want to send is 'telnet A1' motion in the cmd.exe to establish a connection to the microcontroller, followed by "For A1 100 GO," which will be performed by the microcontroller to do what is necessary. But currently, the problem is that I can only establish a connection using the exec.vi system but can't send the second part of the message 'for A1 100 GB".

  My command line, I tried typing is cme.exe /K telnet A1 & for A1 100 GB. It seems that labview is only able to run the first part of the command. Y at - there no alternatives?

  Thank you for all your help.

  I suspect that there are problems of synchronization with this code. Forst, you should clean it to the top because it is very difficult to follow. Cables are hidden under objects, this is a lot bigger than a view type and the code is usually very disorganized. I also suggest that you look at using a state machine, but also a structure of the event to intercept the user interface events such as the Start button.
