How to suspend cmd before closing it?

Question

This is my code.

System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo proc = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(); proc.FileName = @"cmd.exe"; proc.Arguments = "/C "+ "ipconfig" ; System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(proc); 

when I run this code, Cmd starts and exits so fast. How to pause?

THANKS A LOT:)

Answer 1

Specify K instead of C

From the Microsoft documentation:

/ c: Executes the command indicated by the line and then stops.

/ k: Executes the command indicated on the line and continues.

 proc.Arguments = "/K "+ "ipconfig" ;

Answer 2

Use /K instead of /C

 proc.Arguments = "/K " + "ipconfig"; 

You can see the list of command line switches here

/ C Run the command and then exit

/ K Run the command, and then return to the CMD prompt. This is useful for testing, for checking variables.
