function RunEXE(prog) {
    var oShell = new ActiveXObject("WScript.Shell");
    oShell.Run('"' + prog + '"', 1);
}

    You don't. A browser does not have the right to run executables. Your code does not work in recent versions of IE unless you change permission settings to be wide open for all kinds of attacks – Ruan Mendes May 13 '15 at 03:33

My suggestion is that you create an applet and run code like the following:

Runtime.getRuntime().exec("file.exe", null, new File("."));

If you want to be able to pass arguments to the java applet, you'll have to learn about communication between JavaScript and Java in applets. See https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/deployment/applet/invokingAppletMethodsFromJavaScript.html

This is totally untested, and you may have to get your applet signed and deal with SecurityManager https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/environment/security.html
