Thanks for your comment I appreciate it
So, PHP launches file.exe on the web server and doesn't show anything.
PHP is waiting for the application to finish before continuing itself.
The browser is way down the list of important things at this time.
So. Did you intend to execute file.exe on the web server (Oh - if you have access to the web server, take a look at the task manager to see if file.exe is running - once, twice, many many times?).
You can change the "Interact with the desktop" setting on the web server service.
If file.exe is expecting to interact with resources which are NOT on the local machine (file stores, remote printers, etc.) then localsystem will not be enough. You may need to change the user dealing with the web server service.
Erm..
See if anything above makes sense and come back if you have more questions.
