    Need help!

    I need an .exe that launches two programs (differnt windows!) from the same .exe. I also need an config file for it (.ini?) so I can change what .exe's it's gonna start.

    Please I really need this

    Can you explain more of what you are actually trying to do?

    You can certainly create multiple windows in one application.

    Or you can have one executable that starts another one.

    Which is better depends on what you are actually trying to do...

    This seems trivial to accomplish using a 2-line batch file.
    Why all the mess with C++ and .ini files?
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    I want to start two game servers at once at my server but I'm not able to make it start two apps, so I need to make this.

    It dosnt have to be in a special language but I need an starter and one setting file to be able to change the name of the .exe's starting.

    Thx in advance

    Open a console, and type
    start /?

    Create a .cmd file with two "start" commands.
