    The Wscript.Shell object accessible from Windows Script Host (either VBS or JS) has a method called ‘AppActivate’ which, when passed a window title, will attempt to ‘activate’ (which may bring it to the foreground if it’s not minimised).

    The following code snippet in VBScript worked on my machine:

    Set WShell = CreateObject('WScript.Shell') WShell.AppActivate 'Command Prompt' 

    (Edited: Initially I hadn’t tried it. Then I did)
