A:
One way is to conclude the batch file with the
PAUSE
command.

You can also wrap it another batch file that calls the original and then pauses:
FOO.BAT
PAUSE
This also works for read-only batch files and compiled executables.

An alternative is to execute this bat file from an already opened command prompt (shortcut: Windows Key + R, type cmd, press ENTER)
