Windows version is not working for me.
The program self opens continually, thousands of times, eating all the computer resources & finally you have to do a hard reset.

Same problem on Windows Server 2016 (v1607), batch script is not waiting while miner is running it's like immediately returing 0 and then goto :MINE starting new miner until all RAM is exhausted and UI hangs without chance to even kill all tasks or click restart in start menu.

Please use other method for restarting miner, even when miner returns (stops for some reason), put some timeout and start it again...
... people don't start blindlessly miner without check if it's acctualy working, and if hardware fails and thats the reason, well how ofter that happens ?
Don't over engineer simple things.

Solution is below...


The problem is in bat file. In my case PC try to restart until it hangs. I changed one thing:
this:
Code:
:MINE
Start /wait /B /high lolMiner.exe !PARAMS!
if /I %ERRORLEVEL% NEQ 0 goto :MINE

Because:
if ERRORLEVEL 0 goto :MINE

Means IF Errorlevel >= number
so if return 0 no error it's going to GOTO
