I have a python program that runs command line (Windows 10), how can I save the output as a text file, also I want to run the command line process in background.

you can save the output of a command to a text file by simply typing > txtFile.txt after your command, like:

dir > text.txt

and for your task to run in the background you should use Threads in python. example:

from threading import Thread

def do_in_background():
    # your background task should be here.
    pass 

t = Thread(target=do_in_background, daemon=True)
t.start()
