Keep terminal open at the end of bash script

I'm trying to run a bash script from cmd. When I execute the script a new terminal is opened an immediately closed since there is some problem with it. Because its happening so fast I can't read the problem. I'm looking for a way to keep the terminal open once the script exits.

You can also put a $SHELL in a new line at the end of your script. The window will stay open, no matter from where you open your shell script (e.g. cmd / powershell / etc).

to test a .sh script in windows cmd (assuming you have bash installed and in your path environment variable): cd into parent directory, type "bash" to enter bash console, type "./", type "exit" to exit bash console
