Batch calculations in Plaxis 3D issues

Hi all,

Trying to run calculations "hands-free" using the Windows batch file as per ...

However within the command log file "__kill" closes the Input program, and then when trying to start the next round of commands, we'll get the Plaxis 3D input pop-up~

"Continue" then has to be clicked before any of the commands are further actioned - just wondering is the only solution here to untick the "Show on startup" option? I don't believe there exists commands for opening a file etc.
