Problem description

Start /WAIT to a 2nd cmd script returns before script exits if CHOICE.exe is used

Steps to reproduce

  1. make 2 scripts using choice.exe with timeout
  2. make 1 call the other with start /wait
  3. as soon as choice.exe times out on the 2nd script the script will return and the 1st will continue.
  4. doesn't happen with cmd alone

Description is unclear. What do you start and in what order?

OK thank you, heres some simple code to demo the issues: ConEmu Features: Process 'Start' is TICKED. Choice.exe binaries are from windows 7 64 bit. both the 32 bit & 64 bit Choice.exe binaries test the same. All Script2.cmd will fire in MAIN script as soon as Choice.exe timeout in Script2 Expires, before the scripts exit.

MAIN SCRIPT:

@echo off

        CHOICE.exe /C 1S  /N /T 5 /D 1 /M "*****  TYPE:  [1] to Start Script2 [S] to Skip  ***** ?  (Auto Start in 5S...)"
        Start /wait Script2.cmd
        Start /wait Script2.cmd
        Start /wait Script2.cmd

Script2.cmd:

@echo off

        ECHO  THIS IS SCRIPT 2
        CHOICE.exe /C 1S  /N /T 5 /D 1 /M "*****  TYPE:  [1] to Start Script2 [S] to Skip  ***** ?  (Auto Start in 5S...)"
