How to start two applications simultaneously in Task Scheduler without one waiting for other being closed?

0

I want to delay the startup of two apps by a minute. So I created a task that's triggered at log on.

Startup Apps (I'm not allowed to embed an image)

However, only the first app gets started. The second doesn't start unless I quit the first app.
Is there a way to start both simultaneously, without one waiting for the other getting closed?

EDIT:

I'm currently using a batch script that runs these two applications. And I've made the task run this script.

About my rejection of the suggested edit: I'll embed this image when the "rules" allow me to. I don't want any other person doing it for me.

1create two tasks, or start them via script which is started from task scheduler – SimonS – 2018-05-14T07:11:12.283

Within Task Scheduler, create two separate tasks, with the same trigger and other information.

That was my first thought, too. But I thought if there were a way to do it without creating two separate tasks. – popeye_the_sailorman – 2018-05-15T16:03:27.370

as far as I am aware, I don't believe there is a simple method, you could call something else which calls the 2 programs you want to run. This may be over complicated for what you want to do. – Stese – 2018-05-15T16:06:15.613

Yeah, I get it. I upvoted your answer, but it doesn't show up because of the rules. – popeye_the_sailorman – 2018-05-15T16:07:14.647
