cmd wnd keeps open in background by using TE via commando line

The CMD window open in the background is an artifact of the Windows environment running command line.



If you don't want to do it that way, you can utilize the built in windows task scheduler and call each line as a different task rather than including them in a batch file.  This is what we used in a previous iteration of my role as a test automator.
