Open Application-Notepad

Hello all, when I try to open notepad using the open application activity, the default file name is “Microsoft.WindowsNotepad_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App” . I get an error until I change the filename to the path of the notepad application on windows, which is “C:\Windows\notepad.exe”.
Can someone explain why?

The above is the correct path which make sense.

Thanks

You are using wrong path due to which error occurs.

Hello @olubukola

If you are using the Open Application activity to open the application, you need to provide the full path of the application.

“C:\Windows\notepad.exe”

Thanks

In the lesson video, they didn’t have to type in the path, the path is automatically added by selecting the application.
