Windows 10: Powershell with CMD/c to run external command with Parameters

Greeting,


I have an old command line application call Commandline.exe. it run with a parameter to check then show the result. but it need extra "Enter" to confirm


like:

commandline.exe -s 4567890


So I preparing the an answer file which is on an "Enter" crlf inside it. called c:\apps\answer.txt.

use line: pipe to feed commandline.exe that "Enter"

type c:\apps\answer.txt c:\apps\commandline.exe -s 4567890


So in powershell I assembly them together like below,


cmd /c type c:\apps\answer.txt c:\apps\commandline.exe -s 4567890


It works in powershell command line. but with other code together it not


$cmd="type c:\apps\answer.txt c:\apps\commandline.exe -s 4567890"


The idea is parameter 45567890 is other code created, do not want to be clear text on the command line.



Thanks and Best Regards,

Can't run command in PowerShell but OK in Cmd

I tried the suggested command and it does work manually in Power Shell. But Task Scheduler chokes on it.





If i say "Yes" it breaks up the command string to "%C:\program" with the rest of the command as an argument.

 

GPU-Z what command line parameter ?

Current /? (-?) or / help (-help) parameter is invalid
