| + | (!) Note that this is almost never the right action to use to launch an application. Instead, use the [[action:Activate_a_Specific_Application|Activate a Specific Application]] action, which will both launch and activate the application. If you really want to use this action, ensure you select the Finder as the application to use to “open” the application - otherwise the system may try to open the application as a document using some other application, which is highly unlikely to be what you want to do (except in very rare circumstances, like perhaps opening an application with a compression utility to compress it for network transport). | ||
