I am new to UFT. I am using version 14.02 build 3792.

I want to open an executable file but my app won't open. The line of code passes the maintenance run and run, however, that's all; my window to launch the file won't open.

I have been looking for answers on Google all morning. I have tried using CMD in my recording, only to find that doesn't work either.

My code is 

SystemUtil.Run "C:\SIMULATOR\AGS Gate Simulator\version 2.7.8.5\AGSGateSimulator.exe","open"

I get nothing, except a passed test.

  • did you tried removing the 2 second parameter? So: `SystemUtil.Run "C:\SIMULATOR\AGS Gate Simulator\version 2.7.8.5\AGSGateSimulator.exe"`. – Jonas Jun 27 '19 at 05:21
  • @Jonas Good morning, yes, I tried. Same results. :( – Venus Jun 27 '19 at 13:58
  • Hi, did you trief starting the application manually? `Win + R` and type `C:\SIMULATOR\AGS Gate Simulator\version 2.7.8.5\AGSGateSimulator.exe`? – Jonas Jun 27 '19 at 14:00
  • Good morning, yes. :( – Venus Jul 01 '19 at 12:56
  • I'm starting to wonder if there are special configurations needed to use with our internal software... I am not the only one having problems with using UFT on the job. – Venus Jul 01 '19 at 12:58

    Hi, can you try something easy: `SystemUtil.Run "C:/Windows/System32\cmd.exe"`? Will this start an console? – Jonas Jul 01 '19 at 13:02
  • Yes, that command successfully opened a cmd console :) – Venus Jul 02 '19 at 13:25
  • so there need to be an problem executing your file. Can you try the following: `Dim shell` `Set shell = CreateObject("Wscript.shell")` `shell.run "C:\SIMULATOR\AGS Gate Simulator\version 2.7.8.5\AGSGateSimulator.exe"` – Jonas Jul 02 '19 at 13:41
  • Good morning, @Jonas. I was overseas and am just getting back. I will try your suggestion asap. Thanks! – Venus Jul 22 '19 at 12:49
