Opening project in VSCode using batch file



Disclaimer: I read this and this before, but it doesn't work as I want.



Description: I decided to create set of batch files for convenient way to run different projects in VSCode from desktop in one click(double-click). I want close cmd terminal after running a batch file, but terminal remains. I tried:


start code "C:UsersMyUserNamepathtomyprojectdirectory"



and


cmd /c start code "C:UsersMyUserNamepathtomyprojectdirectory"



It quickly runs command, runs code and opens my project, then, it seems to me, closes terminal and runs a new one in desktop directory.





What is code? a program?

code





Start uses the first argument in quotes as the window title. So insert a dummy pair start "" code "C:UssersMyUserNamepathtomyprojectdirectory" @aschipfl code is a batch in the path C:Program FilesMicrosoft VS Codebincode.cmd

start "" code "C:UssersMyUserNamepathtomyprojectdirectory"


C:Program FilesMicrosoft VS Codebincode.cmd





@LotPings, I tried it, but result is the same, excepting the terminal's title. Now it is empty.

cmd /c start "" /d "C:UsersMyUserNamepathtomyprojectdirectory" code





@DavidPostill thank you, but Code was opened with default empty project, and terminal remained opened in my project directory.

PHP contact form sending but not receiving emails

PHP contact form sending but not receiving emails I have created a contact form using PHP to send the data. The form seems to send fine as there are no errors and success message appears, however I am not receving the emails into the designated inbox. I am using PHPMailer as I originally tried just using the php 'mail' command which I now understand is a bit hit and miss. I cannot see why I would not be receving the emails so I would be very grateful for any help that could be given. I'm quite new to PHP so please be patient with me :) <?php use PHPMailerPHPMailerPHPMailer; use PHPMailerPHPMailerException; $msg = ""; if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { require 'phpmailer/src/Exception.php'; require 'phpmailer/src/PHPMailer.php'; require 'phpmailer/src/SMTP.php'; function sendemail ($to, $from, $body) { $mail = new PHPMailer(true); $mail->setFrom($from); $mail->addAddress($to); $ma...

Is there such value and if so what would it be called and how could I access it? Right now I'm using modern nvidia cards (10xx series) and nvidia inspector.but I'd prefer if there was any value that was also applicable to amd. I have programming and scripting knowledge. I am running Windows 10 1 Answer 1 This is a powershell example to pull information from video cards. The DeviceID is supposed to be unique but only if the manufacturer supports Windows Display Driver Model (WDDM). (I copied this directly from docs.microsoft.com) $strComputer = "." $colItems = get-wmiobject -class "Win32_VideoC...
