Reindexing the database in .cmd script

[Karbi]

I have Everything running as a service on system startup.

I want to Force Rebuild the indexes in a .cmd script.
In the script I am using START command as given below.

START "C:\Program Files\Everything\Everything.exe -reindex"

This opens a system32 window and I have to issue EXIT command to close the window.

It doesn't reindex the database.

How to make Everthing in a .cmd script, to Force Rebuild the indexes in background, without opening the system window.

Thanks in advance.

It's the quotes ..

Try the following instead:

Code: Select all

START "" "C:\Program Files\Everything\Everything.exe"  -reindex

The first "" is the title of the "CMD window". If not added, "C:\Program Files\Everything\Everything.exe" will be seen as the title.

It works now.
Thanks a bunch, NotNull.
