Learning objective: (3) Demonstrate the use of the START command in a batch file
Click on image to enlarge.
The command will start Firefox with the safety switch and open the Goggle web site and play music as it starts up.
START music
This line defaults to the system's media player for ".wav" files. Since the /WAIT is not used, as soon as the process starts, the next line in the batch file is executed.
START firefox -switch URL
Note the use of the "-safe-mode" switch and the Google address. The "-safe-mode" launches the application with extensions disabled and the default theme. This can be very helpful when trying to troubleshoot issues with the program.
