run .exe from batch file (I'm new)

Question

I need to create a batch file to run some simulations for me automatically.

I usually use this: C:\\Users\\Paulo Victor\\Google Drive\\LCCV\\Simulacoes\\MODELO II\\Diâmetro Variável>demoop_parallel Caso 16.ofs into cmd prompt and it works.

So, I tried to create a batch file and didn't work for me, I put:

start "C:\Users\Paulo Victor\Google Drive\LCCV\Simulacoes\MODELO II\Diâmetro Variável\demoop_parallel.exe" "C:\Users\Paulo Victor\Google Drive\LCCV\Simulacoes\MODELO II\Diâmetro Variável\Caso 16.ofs" 

and it does not work, what am I doing wrong?

I know, it is a simple question, but again, I'm really new.

Answer 1

The first quoted string is used as the Window Title when using the start command. So use an empty set of quotes at the beginning.

start "" "C:\Users\Paulo Victor\Google Drive\LCCV\Simulacoes\MODELO II\Diâmetro Variável\demoop_parallel.exe" "C:\Users\Paulo Victor\Google Drive\LCCV\Simulacoes\MODELO II\Diâmetro Variável\Caso 16.ofs"
