    For perl -V:sh I get
    sh='cmd /x /c'

    [download]
    on both machines (Win10 and Win7).

    Your suggestion with the system and exit calls works once, but if I try to restart the restarted instance of the program, I need to press the Enter key again :-(

      Are you mouse clicking on the cmd window? Is your mouse double clicking? So you click restart and the double click clicks cmd thus entering quickedit mode?
