Run hidden exe - samuelbachorik - Aug-02-2020
Hello dear users, iam trying to call exe. file from python and run it hidden. I want to run it without user operation. I have this script and it is working fine but when windows needs to ask this, it is not working -
Is it possible to add something to this code to skip this or always allow to run targeted exe. ?
When i run this program and accept is needed, this program crash. When i run this program and acept is not needed it works fine.
import subprocess
def startProgram():
SW_HIDE = 0
info = subprocess.STARTUPINFO()
info.dwFlags = subprocess.STARTF_USESHOWWINDOW
info.wShowWindow = SW_HIDE
subprocess.Popen(r"C:\Program Files\SketchUp\SketchUp 2017\SketchUp.exe", startupinfo=info)
startProgram()
