Have you tried executing the command manually from the command prompt?

In Win10: Ctrl-X or Right Click Start and Select "Command Prompt".

Windows should display an error in the command prompt window that will point you in the right direction.

It says it can't find it.

Am I doing it right?

I just typed in "start openmw-launcher".

Right click on "start" button and click "Command Prompt". It should open a separate command prompt window.

If your .exe is in the path, you can type the exact (full) name of the file <enter> and it will execute (or kick an error to the console - or it might hang-). If the .exe you wish to run is not in the path, you'll need to change into the folder containing the .exe, then enter it's exact (full) name and press <enter>.

Note: This page shows how to view/edit the path in Windows 10.

Nothing seems to happen at all.

No errors or anything.

Try leaving off "start". Just enter the full name and press <enter>.

The "start" command would have opened it in another command prompt so any messages/output would have probably gone by so fast you couldn't see them.

It's odd that you get no errors or output at all. You could possibly check wizard.log or crash.log but chances are they didn't get populated. Sorry, I'm out of suggestions. :|
