  1. Running a .exe with no GUI


    I use Linux on my home computer, but at most other places it’s Windows 10. I created a Python script to ask the user for a password and if it’s correct it’ll display my passwords. This is obviously insecure because the user could edit the file and see all the data that’ll be printed if password is correct, so then I used auto-py-to-exe to covert it to an executable file. In Linux terminal I’d do ‘,/program.exe’. On Windows I’ve tried ‘start program.exe’ but it doesn’t work. Any ideas how to run it? Or is it simply not compatible with Windows?
