Hi, Is there any specific reason why the "startprogram" function is not working as intended? It used to be a simple and practical function in previous versions. I'm not sure if users would prefer to use such a complicated structure. Thanks. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Split from WinCC Unified Start an external Notepad .

This would be a question for the WinCC Unified Runtime development team. But I doubt that any of them would be active here, so you should rather create a support request. Kind regards Stefan

I don't think this kind of usage would be widely accepted by many users. I wanted to point that out. When I tried the suggested method, it resulted in two console windows staying open. Requesting the operator to close them every time is not a user-friendly approach, to be honest. Hopefully, in future updates, a more effective solution will be developed for this issue. Thank you for your interest.

Good luck and good work.

Hi, no problem, it's just that we suggest support when we don't have exact answers here, we just help with what we know and can, and it's always available for discussions and for others to read and know too. And when a call is opened, your response may be faster for the solution in question or for a solution in a future update, we suggest posting the results here for everyone to know. good luck.
