How do I make the script wait for the execution of a program run
through the start-process?

Thanks

I think you can sometimes try piping to out-null to cause PowerShell to wait
for completion.

Give that a try...

Start-Process has a -wait parameter that does exactly that, at least in V2.

($proc = [system.Diagnostics.Process]::Start
("notepad.exe")).WaitForExit()
