problems with shellexecute

Hellow.
I need some help in this program i am doing some stuff and i have a little bug in using shellExecuteExecute it works normaly the calculator opens but then the programm that i wrote closes itself and I have onely opened claculator. How to prevent programm from closing?

I launched the debug mode. So when pressed "innstal" again it wrote:
"0x1934 stream exited with code 0 (0x0).
Feed 0x1dc0 exited with code 0 (0x0).
The "[1584] Win32Project3.exe" ended with code 0 (0x0)."

Now I know when i press innstal the program finishes itself and opens calculator again: "why?"
