Hi there,
I have a business case whereby, on the click of a button in a canvas app, it launches a program (.exe) on the user's machine.
Is this possible, either out of the box with Power App studio, or via a Launch command to take to a URL which opens this app via Azure?
Thanks
K.
Hi @Kosenurm
Launching an exe on a users machine from a canvas app (or any website) is a big security risk and it isn't really possible to do this.
In answer to your second question, you could possibly call Launch to open a web page that contains ActiveX /VBScript to launch the exe. If the user uses the Internet Explorer browser, or Edge in IE mode, this may work. However, it isn't something I would recommend.
