   Terry Pinnell to All   
   Novice: how to get this working?

   From: me@somewhere.invalid   
      
   In Windows 10, if I type the following at a command prompt (or in the   
   Run box) it works correctly, pasting the clipboard to IrfanView.   
      
   "C:\Program Files (x86)\IrfanView\i_view32.exe" /clippaste   
      
   I'd like to run it from a batch file, but this is clearly wrong as it   
   appears to do nothing.   
      
   start "C:\Program Files (x86)\IrfanView\i_view32.exe" /clippaste   
   exit   
      
   How do I correct it please?
