Launching Windows Apps #16
Comments
Windows 10/11 is really missing a simple way to launch Windows Apps from command line... it should be something like windows-app-launcher (maybe i'll write one?)... Anyways, to do this - you follow this methodology to figure out what the app exe is called: Then you can use explorer to launch it.

Launching script successfully written. It is available at https://github.com/jonmchan/windows-app-cmdline-launcher. Now you can simply launch Microsoft Store apps with the following:
Vdesk command would be something like:
This causes vdesk to unfortunately hang. My guess would be that the launch batch script doesn't have a window, but launches a subprocess. vdesk is monitoring for the launched process to spawn a window and move it to the right virtual desktop. Since no window is directly spawned, it hangs indefinitely. Any ideas how to workaround? |
