I'm using GitHub for Windows and would like to use AutoHotKey to map Alt+G to the Git Shell shortcut that is installed on the desktop.

With this in my .ahk file it gives me the error "Failed attempt to launch program or document"

!g::Run C:\Users\dennis\AppData\Local\GitHub\GitHub.appref-ms --open-shell

.appref-ms has something to do with ClickOnce, but I don't know why AutoHotKey can't open it. Is it just not compatible with the Run command, or is there something else I need to do to make this work?

Edit: The same line minus the --open-shell parameter works, but I don't need the GUI. Maybe my issue has more to do with how to pass command line arguments within AutoHotKey.

Running the desktop shortcut did the trick!

!g::Run "C:\Users\dennis\Desktop\Git Shell"
