cmd - How to run a command in the background on Windows?

Question

In linux you can use command & to run command on the background, the same will continue after the shell is offline. I was wondering is there something like that for windows…

Answer 1

I believe the command you are looking for is start /b *command*

For unix, nohup represents 'no hangup', which is slightly different than a background job (which would be *command* &. I believe that the above command should be similar to a background job for windows.
