@Raj_Nadar

@Raj_Nadar, My suggestion is:

read the excel file and use the Path.GetFile() to assign an array variable of the list of all files, then use an if activity to compare the name of the file you got from excel with the list of files in the folder, if you find a match send hotkey with Ctrl + R + Enter to start CMD and paste the full path and file name with extension + Enter, then the file will be opened.

@Pradeep_Shiv - thanks for helping out… I tried to give print using "invoke power shell as getting error.

I do not want use Hotkeys, please suggest.
