Getting the windows Command prompt back


Is there a way we can get Command prompt of windows 7 back? In linux we append "&" ? I actually run a java program which will listen on a port continously. It is working in lunux as it gives the terminal back but "&" is not working in the windows cmd. Thanks

  1. I suggest you use the START command but please be aware that it opens the process in a new window.

    You can read about its syntax at http://www.computerhope.com/starthlp.htm .

  2. start the java program with javaw instead of java. See this answer for some info on javaw. Difference between Java.exe and Javaw.exe
