I tried to call the ProgramExecute function and it didnt work. This function does open a file with an extension but not an external window for example the prt_out folder. Then i tried this Script but it doesnt work.. HWND Handle = NULL; Handle = FindWindow(NULL, "PRT_OUT") ... i even tried ProgramExecute function with the path if(Handle) { ShowWindow(Handle, SW_SHOWNORMAL); SetWindowPos(Handle, HWND_TOPMOST, 400, 200, 520, 420, 0); } I tried this based on yor link.

Let's assume your folder PRT_OUT is located in E:\ This script should open the right path. ProgramExecute("explorer.exe e:\\PRT_OUT"); Remember the double back slash in the path.
