You can open Notepad and other applications like this:
import java.io.IOException; public class OpenApplication { /** * JavaProgrammingForums.com */ public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException { // Opens Notepad Process p1 = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("notepad"); // Opens Windows Calculator Process p2 = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\calc.exe"); } }
