You can do this as root or via sudo:

cd /tmp
nohup /etc/cron.weekly/myfile &

You can then close the window. As I understand it, nohup detaches the process 
from the controlling terminal. See https://phoenixnap.com/kb/linux-nohup for 
details.

OK,

Thank, but I wanted to run it in background, and be able to close the windows.

Hello,

I would like to run cron.weekly from a line command immediately.
How can I do it ?
If the script is /etc/cron.weekly/myfile, then just run

/etc/cron.daily/myfile

as root or via sudo.
