Hello all,
I've got some scripts which use CSCRIPT.EXE to run when I click them. They
open a console-like window which allows me to see the "wscript.echo" output
they generate. So far, so good.
The problem is that whenever something/anything goes wrong causing the
script to terminate it also closes the console-like window.
... which means that I can't read the error message about what caused the
script to terminate. :-(
tl;dr:
Is there a setting/way to have cscript.exe wait on error-exit (so I can read
the error message) ?
Remark:
I've just checked the commandline switches, but did not see anything like
it.
