You can do this with the following syntax, noting that the program you are trying to run should exist on the remote computer already with this syntax. If you only have Notepad++.exe installed locally, you'd have to use the "-c" parameter of psexec to copy that program to the server to run.

psexec \\nb_IT10 -u godr\jak -p pimpam1+ "C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\notepad++.exe"
