Powertoys: [Run] Support commands and parameters

[CLStrike]

Summary of the new feature/enhancement

Support running commands, utilities with parameters.

The older run box supports commands and parameters to be used in cases like this:

• cmd /k [your command here]
• ssh [email protected]
• runas.exe .......
• wt (Launch Windows Terminal)
• ping [server_address_here]

and more!

Could you please allow commands to be used with their optional parameters? Like the old run box did ?

I think if you enter ">" before the command it should work.
ex. "> cmd /k echo hello"

I came here to suggest the same thing and found this post.

'>' does work, mostly. I notice playing around with it though, that for instance, opening a file directly with Notepad++ doesn't work. From Run, this works:
ex. notepad++ c:tempmyfile.txt

But when trying from PowerToys Run, it doesn't do anything (not even open NotePad++)
ex. > notepad++ c:tempmyfile.txt

I know, one example, but it's something.
