This is the path of the file I want to open:
C:\Program Files (x86)\D-Link Connection Manager\a.txt
All control panel apps opens using start command, but this one is not opening. What's the problem?

1OK, so you need to use quotes like this: "C:\Program Files (x86)\D-Link Connection Manager\a.txt" This is because of blanks in the path ... – duDE – 2016-01-12T12:40:01.363
1Yes, it's working. I found the similar answer somewhere else. Thanks. – Vikas – 2016-01-12T12:42:20.007
Do you have any solution to this problem? (Read the detail in the end, main problem lies in there) http://superuser.com/questions/1025169/whats-the-difference-between-a-hidden-administrator-account-and-normal-administ/1025174?noredirect=1#comment1426744_1025174

Hmm. You said as the last comment to my answer "It's working. Thank you". Is it working or not working? In any case your comments are not related to your original question (which I answered). – DavidPostill – 2016-01-12T13:17:18.877
Why are you trying to run
a.txt? You said you were having problems runningC:\Program Files (x86)\D-Link Connection Manager\WirelessModem.exe– DavidPostill – 2016-01-12T13:18:32.347C:\Program Files (x86)\D-Link Connection Manager\a.txtis not a control panel command. – DavidPostill – 2016-01-12T13:19:23.910Try running
notepad "C:\Program Files (x86)\D-Link Connection Manager\a.txt"– DavidPostill – 2016-01-12T13:19:47.600If you insist on using

See start - Start a program, command or batch script (opens in a new window). If the command is quoted"command with spaces"you must have a title, even if it is an empty string"".
