title: Running VSCode from batch file stops execution
body: <p>I'm trying to open two VSCode projects from a batch file, and then close the batch file and let the VSCode run.</p>
  
  <p>Tried several methods:</p>
  
  <p>This does not close the batch file, and if I close it by my self, VSCode terminates:</p>
  
  <pre><code>start "" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\Code.exe" c:\project1
  start "" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft VS Code\Code.exe" c:\project2
  exit
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This one opens two cmds, each one opens VSCode and then terminates, but often it also holds and does not close for some reason:</p>
  
  <pre><code>start cmd /c "code c:\project1 &amp;&amp; exit"
  start cmd /c "code c:\project2 &amp;&amp; exit"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Simply running VSCode sometimes holds the execution of the next commands altogether:</p>
  
  <pre><code>code c:\project1
  code c:\project2
  .
  .  &lt;-- Next commands don't run
  .
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So how should I open VSCode in a way that will not stop the execution and will not depend on the terminal remaining open?</p>
