Try
run("C:\Program Files\eclipse\eclipse.exe");

Well I did, still not working. I dont even know what alternatives I have, beucause Open2 does the same. Maybe linking a shortcutcore? Do you know how can I trigger the shortcutcore, by moving the mouse cursor to a given area of the screen ?

Sorry if you have already done some of these but -
1 - Are you sure the line is being triggered ? add alert("triggered "); after the line to test if it is being triggered.
2 - Run the line run("C:\Program Files\eclipse\eclipse.exe"); from a button press to see if it works.

Thanks for the idea of printing a message for checking the execution of the code in the specific block, but still the same. If you want to, I can upload the widget.
And for the WScript, I get an error. I searched for a quick fix but I am currently learning java, and I don't know much of scripting languages (JS, VB).

digigamer, thanks mate, you freaking ROCK !!! After a couple of tweaks, I found the solution:
shell.run("cmd /k start _path_", 0, false);
Now I can continue the work for my widget It will be a gesture based one, by simply dragging the cursor to a spot for performing different tasks, like show desktop (I like to hide my taskbar), or quickly getting to a link, etc. (possibilities are unlimited)
Cheers

IMO, you won't require to prepend "cmd /k" in the path. (Unless, your OS is 64 bit)
And what's wrong with the Exec() didn't that work?

Exec() didn't work for whatever reason (it was an error or something) and yes, I am on 64bit WIN8.
