A folder named build is created with cmd.exe but when I am running the below line in cmd

cmd one two nothing is happening, Please help

Answer 1

You set the base of your Executable as a Win32GUI which means that it is supposed to be a GUI only with no console. By doing this, Windows does not make stout and stderr available, and your prints go to the mysterious land of unprinted pages (in other words, they are lost).

You should use the base="Console" to be able to see your prints.
