I'm running the WSR with 7 concurrent processes. Is there a way to add information to the opend cmd window to identify which window belongs to which processes?

I need to terminate from time to time a cmd as it's hanging but I can't identify know which window belongs to which process and I need to guess.

In a batch file I would add TITLE parameter in it. Can something similar be set for WSR?

Below screenshot shows 7 CMD's but no distinction between them is possible:

The provided command is too long to check in the taskmanager. The part to see the difference can't be set on the monitor:

A simple way of doing this is using the SystemCaller and providing the Echo command.

Echo before Tester and Echo after Tester shown in this example:

Hi @vat

I would consider looking at FMECloud (https://www.safe.com/fme/fme-cloud/) to run multiple workspaces.

If you have already considered that I would just use FME to create a batch file as mentioned and add the TITLE as you describe.

If you use a program like Process explorer (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/process-explorer ) you might be able to see much more details on the cmd.exe process - so you might find the right parameter there also.
