Oops - didn't think the first message was going through so I added some to it and sent it to Jon. Here is what I sent Jon.
Windows 10 has a "fresh command prompt and lots of hotkeys" ( http://www.hanselman.com/blog/Windows10GetsAFreshCommandPromptAndLotsOfHotkeys.aspx ). You might try back to back CTRL-Cs as the first one is probably being interpreted as the "copy" part of a copy/paste sequence. Right click on the title bar of a Win10 command prompt and select "Properties > Experimental" ( http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/25590/how-to-enable-ctrlv-for-pasting-in-the-windows-command-prompt/ ) and turn off using ctrl-c & ctrl-v for copy/paste. Lots of stuff on Google about the Windows 10 command prompt - the info above is from 2 of the 4 top hits. Oh and here's another comment from ( http://www.fixedbyvonnie.com/2014/10/3-reasons-windows-10-command-prompt-bomb-diggy/ ) "Oh wait – I should mention something: since Ctrl + c i s now assigned to copying text you can’t use it to terminate a stubborn process from the command line . Technically, you could try Ctrl + break to kill a frozen process but I think Ctrl + c is the preferred way of extricating yourself from command line emergencies." Again, go the the properties of the command prompt window under Experimental and try turning "off" using Ctrl-C / Ctrl-V for copy/paste. Lee Peedin VP Research & Development Safe Data, Inc.

The help file says that this > disables ^C processing Hello Jon, Thank you fro your reply. Nope, never used the /B parameter in any of my programming for the start command. Actually, /B fully says: Start application without creating a new window. The application has ^C handling ignored. Unless the application enables ^C processing, ^Break is the only way to interrupt the application. For all of my programming - both for startup.rex and multiprocessing - I always want new windows / sessions to insure its own uniqueness for using cores and/or physical processors.
