Re^4: Launch an exe using system

Thanks of the response. I tried the following code :

my $LifeCamLoc = "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft LifeCam";
    system('start "$LifeCamLoc"');
    system('start LifeCam.exe');

Maybe you want to read the documentation for the `start` command of `cmd.exe`? The `start` command takes at least two parameters, the title and the command to launch. So you will need to pass it two parameters from your script too.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

To get a feel for what the OS is going to see replace system with print then figure out if what you see is what you would type at the command line to get the effect you expect. True laziness is hard work	[reply]
