windows disappear

What happens when you execute command line programs from the run dialog is
that they run to completion and the command line then closes. Instead, you
should enter cmd at the run dialog, and then enter your command arguments
from the command line directly, after which the results will still be there.
The command line, launched using cmd, will stay put until you type exit.
