Autostart Node-Red ends up in endless loop?

[Gawan]

Hi,

I try to autostart Node-Red on my Windows Server 2016 Standard OS.
So I created a CMD-File looking like this:

If I either autostart or doubleclick the CMD-File it ends up in and endless loop:

If I go to command line and execute the exactly same command manually, it works fine and NR runs immeadiately and only once.
Any idea what could go wrong here ?

Try using forward slash instead. E.g. c:/xxxxx
Also, add cd c:\xxxxx on the line before so that the cwd is set before launching.
