WinSat command line closes too fast

I had the same problem but it resolved when I ran "cmd" as administrator, then typed the winsat commands in the command prompt box.

You could redirect output to a file so you can read it.

example:

winsat disk -seq -read -drive c > C:\winsatoutput.txt 2>&1

EDIT: It seems winsat has a -log switch which does this:

winsat disk -seq -read -drive -log C:\winsatoutput.txt

this way, all output including errors will be in the file C:\winsatoutput.txt.

there is a parameter -xml , which saves the output to a xml file.

see http://technet.microsoft.com/de-de/library/cc742157(WS.10).aspx .

for example: WinSAT disk –read –ran –ransize 4096 –drive k -xml C:\test.xml

Doesn't do that over here - but try:

winsat disk -seq -read -drive c & pause
