You should use $zf(-100) to execute the operating system command to run the EXE. There are examples of running .EXE files in that documentation.
I saw this command, but I have a problem, this application .Exe open a Windows Form, with this command don't open.
Try using the "/SHELL" flag.
As you say: your .EXE is on the server and NOT on the CLIENT.
Some terminal emulators (e.g. KEA) once had the feature to launch a LOCAL command triggered by an ESC sequence.
But this requires your .EXE to be already installed on your LOCAL client.
You may need to have a telnet or SSH connection to your client.
Browsers typically don't allow this. But they may run JavaScript (which isn't your .EXE)
