title: How to close my .bat window after its executed in windows XP sp3
body: <p>I just have two simple lines, I have tried numerous measured looked up online but can't seem to get the window to close. I am running two programs in the batch file basically. One is installing a program at Windows XP boot, and the other is adding a few registry keys. I have the .bat file being started from the registry (RUN).
  When it's finished it asks to "press any key to continue". I am sure this is simple, just not exactly sure what the problem is.... Here is my RunReg.bat currently:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@echo off    
  timeout /t 19 /nobreak    
  start C:\Windows\regedit.exe /s C:\FFDRIFT\RunReg.reg    
  start C:\FFDRIFT\MultiKey32\install.cmd    
  exit
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>And here is the content of install.cmd:</p>
  
  <pre><code>@cd /d %~dp0
  @devcon remove root\multikey
  @devcon install multikey.inf root\multikey
  @pause 
  </code></pre>
