Question

– ping www.google.com –t

I have created a shortcut on desktop and typed this command as it’s “Target ” ..Now when I double click it, cmd window opens for a sec and vanishes..how do I make it run in the background until this process is manually ended ? The shortcut name’s “Ping” and I don’t see no Process named “Ping” in the task manager. What I want is to keep on pinging google server

Answer 1

Solution 1:
Do a manual ping from the command prompt and write a -t at the end which makes it a persistent ping. You would have to close the cmd prompt window to stop the ping.

for example type in command prompt: ping www.google.com -t

Solution 2:
you can create a shortcut like so

cmd /c "ping www.google.com –t"

Solution 3:
Any free ping utility would do what you require, check on google for “free ping” which will also
work.
