Hi, my comment arrives a bit late for the discussion but I found this thread while looking for help about Win32::Process and want to help somebody else who read this later :-).

If you want to start a process with Win32::Process you need to pass full-qualified executable name, which is usually unknown. In this case Win32::SearchPath is helpful. Find out the path to the executable:

my $cmd = Win32::SearchPath::SearchPath('ipconfig');

The module checks either the path in the same way as Windows does or let you specify directories where to look:

my $cmd = Win32::SearchPath::SearchPath('ipconfig', 'C:\Windows');
[download]

Then you start the process as you want using Win32::Process:

Win32::Process::Create( $ProcessObj, $cmd, '/all', 0, IDLE_PRIORITY_CL
+ASS, "." )
                        || die "error running process";
