Running a metro app about vdesk HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi There,

You should be able to just do run:wunderlist:

Let me know if that works or not

from vdesk.

Nice... I never could figure out to make that work.. I"ve always used a batch script to do this with vdesk. Makes things much cleaner now.

Thanks :)

Running an app like that certainly works :)
But now when I do this:

vdesk on:2 noswitch:true run:wunderlist:

The app does start, but on VD1 (VD2 exists just fine) and vdesk displays this error:

Since metro apps are a lot more universal, I suspect this problem will hold for more metro apps, if not all. Not tested yet though.

from vdesk.

thany, try the batch way that I was doing previous. Make a batch file say in c:\scripts\wunderlist.bat and inside the batch file will be "start wunderlist:" without quotes. Then on your vdesk command will be "vdesk on:2 noswitch:true run:"c:\scripts\wunderlist.bat"

See if that works.

Running UWP apps should work using the protocol handler method (like vdesk run:calculator: or vdesk run:wunderlist:), although noswitch:true is broken, as detailed in #54
