7 years ago Starting a program is as simple as modifying the starting bangs setting of the skin to include something like:
["notepad"]
or
["C:/Windows/notepad.exe"]
The former would work for programs that have been added to Windows' PATH system variable, but you can also just use the absolute path to an executable like in the latter example.
If you want to automatically close the program when you quit a game, then you can add something like the following to the stopping bangs setting:
["taskkill" "/im" "notepad.exe"]
If the game crashes, then that would also close the program, which might not be what you want to happen in that situation (e.g. automatically close a VOIP client when a multiplayer game crashes). So it might be best to just manually close the program when you are finished with the game.
That being said, it is not currently possible to execute specific bangs on a game-by-game basis. However, that does sound like a feature that could be added in the next version.

So I wanted to know if it's possible to load different executables when you open a game
For example, I always use haste when I play overwatch, but I don't need it when I'm not playing, since it consumes resources.
is there a way to do this?
