Running multiple windows commands using batch file

Question

I have next to no knowledge of code so forgive my ignorance. I'm trying to run

netsh winsock reset

and

netsh int ipv4 reset

on a single command line. I tried using & and && but only the first command is executed.

Here's what I got from the other answers on here:

cmd /K netsh winsock reset & netsh int ipv4 reset

How can I get it to run the second command?

Or: cmd /K command ^& command (or cmd /C command ^& command if you want the command window to close automatically afterwards) — aschipfl

Should be /c not /k

Thank you, that worked! I'll know to add those from now on. I was using /k so I could verify both commands worked, I'll switch it to /c now that I know they're both executed.

@HarryJohnston Depending upon your need. /C Run Command and then terminate /K Run Command and then return to the CMD prompt. This is useful for testing, to examine variables

There are situations in which /k is preferable, but they're rare. The OPs description does not suggest that this is one of them.

I don't think that, for OP, it matters anymore. It can be used based upon need. Since in problem /K is used so the same is provided here.
