I have a website anomoz.com where i have uploaded an exe file in the directory 'anomoz.com/home/createFolder.exe'. This exe will create a folder named 'Console' in the working directory when run. Is there a way i can run this exe through cmd or any other way that i can try?

I tried "cmd /k 'start https://anomoz.com/home/createFolder.exe'" but it just opens the file for download and doesnt execute it.

Thanks in advance.

No that's impossible, why can't the code of your website create the folder, it's unclear to me what you want to achieve here. What environment are you talking about, asp.net? – Ole EH Dufour Mar 04 '18 at 14:18
I dont want to run this exe from my server. I want to run this exe as a user who knows the location of exe, but doesnt have access to the administration of the website. – Ahsan Ahmed Mar 04 '18 at 14:28
OK, What language are you using? – Ole EH Dufour Mar 04 '18 at 14:32
exe is written in pthon. what other language ae u talking about? – Ahsan Ahmed Mar 04 '18 at 14:37
The language of your website, I assume you have some server side code? What is the OS of the host? – Ole EH Dufour Mar 04 '18 at 14:39
it has been written in PHP – Ahsan Ahmed Mar 04 '18 at 14:41
You will need to find out how to run an exe from php, see for instance : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/13446492/run-a-exe-with-input-parameters-from-php-web-page – Ole EH Dufour Mar 04 '18 at 14:47
the OS hosting is using is Linux – Ahsan Ahmed Mar 04 '18 at 14:51
