I guess you could create your own code stage VBO that does this, or you could use command line (via the Start Process action) - I think the windows compact command would do what you want?

We have used the windows command line to do something very similar. I'd suggest that's a good place to start. One word of caution though. It would be advisable to change the startup batchfile on your runtime resource to include - Start ""1"" before the path to the executable and Exit at the end. This removes the CMD window and stops issues with BP discovering the wrong CMD window. Here is an example -  Start ""1"" ""C:\Program Files\Blue Prism Limited\Blue Prism Automate\Automate.exe"" /public /resourcepc /port 8181 /dbconname ""Connection Name"" Exit
