it has been so long since i dealt with this i don't know if this helps but i think when you have a batch file such as startup_sequence it opens a shell while working. as long as the program started by this batch file is running that shell won't close. well unless the output is sent to >nil or >null. so chances are those shell processes are being held open by a certain process.

dangit i got bea by two people. i suck at typing.

Even if you use run, each programme which gets loaded is still a process so will still shift the next shell's process number along by 1. Using Run just detaches it from the current shell processes (allowing e.g. startup-sequence to continue running without waiting for the other programme to finish what it's doing). Redirecting output to NIL just means you don't see the text telling you which shell process has been created for the command.

yea that's right. it has been so long i am a bit rusty.:lol:
