From a batch file, is it possible to open the Desktop view like when you press the Windows Key and the Tab Key? Preferably in one command.

  • I’m relatively sure this is part of the explorer.exe shell and not a separate process on its own. You would need something like AutoHotkey to bring it up. What are you trying to do? – Worthwelle Oct 13 '18 at 17:42
  • Open it from a rain meter script. I figured there was an explorer shell code. – Mark Deven Oct 13 '18 at 18:07

    @MarkDeven - I wrote an answer here for something similar but not exactly the same if I understand you correctly, this may be what you are looking for. https://superuser.com/questions/1224564/how-to-load-startup-programs-on-different-task-views/1228351#1228351. . . Let me know if something like that would suffice for opening a specific Virtual Desktop. – Vomit IT - Chunky Mess Style Oct 15 '18 at 06:07
