Should we use CScript.exe or WScript.exe to run .vbs files?

Question

VBScript files (.vbs) can be run using either cscript.exe or wscript.exe.

What is the difference between these two options?

Answer 1

One significant difference is that cscript works inside the console, wscript does not work.

If you need console output, use cscript . In this mode, printing will output to the console. The same print in wscript sends its output to the dialog boxes:

 wscript.echo "hello" 

Answer 2

Using cscript, it displays information in the cmd window, which will not stop the script. when using Hscript, information that stops the script will be displayed
