Hi,

no restart

this setting doesn’t work for me (v 2022.1). do I have to consider anything else?

Dim RetVal
RetVal = Shell(PathToFile(“MyApp.exe -enterkey”), 2)

If I understand, it does not work when you use the -enterkey parameter passed to the EXE file?

3

yes, with vba or cmd.

myapp.exe always starts a second time and the application is open in 2 instances

4

or what has this setting for advantages?

5

Not in particular if you use the command line parameter. It’s just to avoid the end user to start the EXE themselves again. But we’ll review if this is a bug or not. Thanks!

ok thanks,

i thought there might be a command line parameter like myapp.exe -enterkey norestart or something.
