That link (Syntax for calling AutoIt compiled Script (.exe) using ShellExecuteW in MT4 EA (Quest) - MQL4 forum) would point out this error. See also run a *.bat from EA (Route206) - MQL4 forum and Execute an exe-file from MQL (Steffen Siegert) - MQL4 forum	// MessageBox(ShellExecuteW(0,"open","C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe",NULL,NULL,10));    MessageBox(ShellExecuteW(0,"open","C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Notepad++\\notepad++.exe",NULL,NULL,10));
