Cannot open Excel.exe

[A Former User]

Hi,
I can open calc.exe when a push button is clicked from gui,
QProcess* process = new QProcess();
QString program = "c:\windows\system32\calc.exe";
process->start(program);

But i cannot open excel.exe.
QProcess* process = new QProcess();
QString program = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office15\EXCEL.exe";
process->start(program);

Is there any admin settings? Where I am going wrong?

I don't know your use case, so I may be wrong, but you should consider using eithee QProcess::startDetached() or (better) QDesktopServices::openUrl()

Also, you should use Unix paths in Qt, so the URLs should be:

QString program("C:/windows/system32/calc.exe");
