Hi Junicho - you can attach to explorer.exe and spy elements on the desktop. Maybe you don't need to use SA - AA (blue) mode will spy an icon and the Default navigate action will launch it.

You can't launch explorer.exe, it's part of Windows running as a background process. You can only attach your object to explorer.exe.
