My command line runs and then disappears after a second.

Question

I've just downloaded the windows files, when I run them they seem to disappear after a second. Is this because I do not have the system requirements ?

Answer 1

This is normal behavior for command-line programs on Windows if you open them directly from the Explorer. Instead, open a command line using cmd then type in the command you want to run (with appropriate parameters).

Thanks. Now when I run the line 'multichain-util create chain1', it doesn't recognise multichain-util. would you know the reason for this

You need to be in the right directory in the command line, where you installed the programs.
