Hello,
How can I create a working launcher for a .vbs script?
My launcher.ini contains the following line:
[Launch]
ProgramExecutable=Git\Git Bash.vbs
The launcher .exe is built without any errors but when running, the .vbs script does not show up. The path to the .vbs script is definitely correct.
Any ideas?

I don't think VBS scripts are supported by the PA.c Launcher.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
But these are interpreted files; the following can be used then:

Thanks for your suggestion. But this is not quite correct.
The launcher fails to start because it appends \App to the launch path. The error message:
Error: App\%SystemRoot%\System32\WScript.exe cannot be found
We will need to make an exception for it then.
@John: I'm not sure there are enough use cases for treating wscript specially.

That is, for now I cannot create a launcher using the current launcher creation assistant?
It's just as well as lots of corporate and university machines deactive VBS as it is used for nefarious purposes.

Alright. Now I am using a workaround to start the vbs script through a cmd script.
