How to start Intel Power Gadget in Batch Script?-CodePudding

On the Intel page it says that you can start the log with the commands "-start" and "-stop". I have already tried different variants, but I can't get it to run.

My goal is to start the log at the beginning of the batch script, then measure the energy consumption of a test application and stop the log at the end.

Here is an example from the file:

SET IPG=C:\Program Files\Intel\Power Gadget 3.6\IntelPowerGadget.exe

START "" "%IPG%" -start

CodePudding user response：

Found out for myself. It seems that the program did not start because the process was running too fast and thus could not be executed completely. Have now added a timeout.

SET IPG=C:\Program Files\Intel\Power Gadget 3.6\IntelPowerGadget.exe

START "" "%IPG%"

timeout /t 5 

START "" "%IPG%" -start

....

START "" "%IPG%" -stop

Maybe it helps someone.
