Pausing Start/Run result window?

K

KG

Is there a way to pause the result window of a command ran at the Start / Run prompt? As an
example if I run "fsutil dirty query c:" I see a window flash open then close, that's all, I have
tried "fsutil dirty query c: /P" "fsutil dirty query c: /pause" "fsutil dirty query c: pause" but
no help. It runs fine at a "%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe" DOS window. Any ideas or suggestions?

Much better to run this command from a full Command Prompt:
Start / Run / cmd {OK}

If you insist on using the Start/Run box then you can do it
like so:

cmd /c fsutil & pause

Thank you all for your responses. After many years we still can learn something. I never though
of using cmd om the run line. Thanks again.
