Any one here ?

Any one here ?
You posted that 9 minutes after your original query. Do you pay for my support, or anyone else's, within 10 minutes? :( Or do you just think it's my/our duty? In which case I'll leave it to others for you from now on...

QProcess::execute("gedit my.txt")QProcess::execute("mkdir folder")In practice you should probably use the http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qprocess.html#execute overload to pass the argument(s) as a
QStringList.P.S.
To create a folder, don't actually use a sub-process ofmkdir, use the in-built Qt function for creating a directory.@JonB
i m doing simply like this but not getting o/pQProcess process;
QString exePath = "C:/Windows/ystem32/cmd.exe";
process.start(exePath);
process.execute("cmd.exe");@Embedded Software Developer

process.start(exePath);
process.execute("cmd.exe"); -
@Pranit-Patil
I gave you the lines to type for your question. If you choose to do something quite different and wrong, that's up to you. Perhaps others will sort you out.@JonB sorry for that
i tried your examples
QProcess::execute("gedit my.txt");
QProcess::execute("mkdir Test");but not getting any error or any output.

Neither command should produce any error or output. Unless you don't even have
gedit.... And if you're Windows (your question does not even mention the OS), you may needQProcess::execute("cmd /c mkdir Test");.@JonB Im Developing application in Qt creator 4.6.0 on windows 7 -32bit
#include <QProcess>
#include <QDir>
void Command::on_pushButton_clicked()
{
QProcess process;
QString exePath1 = "D:/Phoenix";
process.start(exePath1);
process.execute("cmd /c mkdir test");
}
not getting any output.@Embedded Software Developer

not getting any output.@Pranit-Patil "not getting any output." - what "output" do you expect?
Why do you start new process to create a directory? You can do this way faster and easier with Qt (http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qdir.html#mkdir)
Also this does not make any sense:QProcess process; QString exePath1 = "D:/Phoenix"; process.start(exePath1); process.execute("cmd /c mkdir test");You can't start a directory as it is not an executable. There is no need to use both start() AND execute().
Did you actually read QProcess documentation?!
It has a nice example:QString program = "./path/to/Qt/examples/widgets/analogclock"; QStringList arguments; arguments << "-style" << "fusion"; QProcess *myProcess = new QProcess(parent); myProcess->start(program, arguments); -

I already pointed all this stuff to OP above.
Additionally, I also deliberately usedQProcess::execute()in my examples for him to keep it down to one liners. Each time he has also added an additionalQProcess::start(). I suggested he just copy my examples verbatim to avoid this, but we don't seem to be getting anywhere.... I'll leave it to you :) -
