Getting the windows Command prompt back



Is there a way we can get Command prompt of windows 7 back? In linux we append "&" ? I actually run a java program which will listen on a port continously. It is working in lunux as it gives the terminal back but "&" is not working in the windows cmd. Thanks

  1. I suggest you use the START command but please be aware that it opens the process in a new window.

    You can read about its syntax at http://www.computerhope.com/starthlp.htm .

  2. start the java program with javaw instead of java. See this answer for some info on javaw. Difference between Java.exe and Javaw.exe

Slow Android emulator

I have a 2.67 GHz Celeron processor, 1.21 GB of RAM on a x86 Windows XP Professional machine. My understanding is that the Android emulator should start fairly quickly on such a machine, but for me it does not. I have followed all instructions in setting up the IDE, SDKs, JDKs and such and have had some success in staring the emulator quickly but is very particulary. How can I, if possible, fix this problem?
