Hi,
Due to security risks it’s impossible to trigger a Windows application from a browser. Luckely (:
To achieve what you want you need a middleware solution.
I have created a executable that runs as a service that listen to TCP messages and can start application from there. In that scenario you can send a TCP message from the controller to the middleware and do what you want. This require some knowledge in Visual Studio (C#)..
BR,
Erwin
