    Need help with

    Hello everyone!

    I'm making a program (for my own use) which looks for another program on the computer and launches it.
    I know i can do the
    Code:
    Process.start("location of filehere")
or
shell("location here")
    But since i'm kind of fancy pants i like to take it a step further and make it search for the application from the computer.
    How can i do that?

    Any help will be appreciated,
    Thanks in advance.

    Once you find the file you are searching for, run it by Process.start("file_location")
