I believe it's not possible, because when you terminate the batch (by pressing the red 'X' on top), it will end imediately without doing anything. But you can Read the user input, and if the user writes "Exit", it will run a program and close. I think you don't want that, but If you, then look at this: In Windows cmd, how do I prompt for user input and use the result in another command?
