        @danyrd, here's one way to do it. You can create a shortcut for an app with these steps then execute that shortcut with start c:\shortcuts\shortcut.lnk:

        • Hold the Windows key and press R, type in shell:AppsFolder, and click OK.

        • Right-click the app and click Create shortcut

        • Click Yes to "Do you want the shortcut to be placed on the desktop instead?"
        • Cut/paste and rename the shortcut to a path like c:\shortcuts\hyperx.lnk
        • Create a TRIGGERcmd command that runs: start c:\shortcuts\hyperx.lnk

        EDIT: If you have the shortcut on your Desktop you can run it like this.

        "%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\Onedrive\desktop\Unreal Engine.lnk"
        

        Sometimes your desktop isn't in your Onedrive folder, so it's like this instead:

        "%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\desktop\Unreal Engine.lnk"
