How can I close Quick Translator after running a .fme file

I want to automate the closing of FME Quick Translator when I run a .fme file.

I have a .fme file that is triggered by windows scheduler to run a .fme file. This obviously opens Quick Translator and runs the routine.

At the end of the routine the quick translator stays open.

Is there a way I can set the .fme file to close quick translator once the routine has finished successfully?

Many thanks

Seb

If you use the fme.exe executable it will run the .fme file directly without starting the Quick Translator. So fme.exe workspace.fme

This works! One problem though, my .fme file has a published parameter that needs input from the user, the prompt never comes up.

@apadilla the prompt isn't displayed but you can add command line options to input parameters.

The other option is to move the published parameter to private and then it runs with no issue.
