To launch an executable from Windows Scripting Host using JScript, create a file with the .js extension and add this code:

var shell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell");
shell.Run("calc.exe");

Double click the file's icon to execute and launch the application.

You can use something like:

WSH = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
WSH.run("notepad.exe");
