Why open command not works?

Have got your answer??

I am getting the same problem.....

"OPEN" does not work for Windows, Use "START" instead, it will definitely work

explorer also works the same

~ explorer someName.pdf
// it opens the default pdf viewer.

~ explorer
// It opens the windows explorer

~ explorer .
// It opens the windows explorer in the current directory/path.

Check whether git bash is installed in "C:\Program Files\Git\git-cmd.exe". If you changed the location of git bash , then try to find the new location and replace the default one in line 69.

What worked for me, only 2 changes to the default config.

{
    shell: 'C:\\Program Files\\Git\\bin\\sh.exe',
    shellArgs: ['--login', '-i'],
}

Thanks everyone

Thanks everyone

thanks

If you're having trouble re-launching Hyper after changing the config, you might find the following helpful:

On Windows 10, Hyper initially wouldn't re-launch for me after I pasted in and saved the new config text. After banging my head against the wall for a while, I realized that the directory that the shell setting in the config was pointing to didn't actually exist on my computer. Git had installed elsewhere; I determined where by typing 'Git' into the Start bar, clicking 'Open file location' under 'Git CMD', right-clicking on the shortcut in its folder, and selecting from the menu 'Open file location' once more. For me, Git had installed in C:\Users[myUserName]\AppData\Local\Programs\Git.

tl;dr in my case I was able to get it working by replacing "shell: 'C:\Program Files\Git\bin\sh.exe'," in the config with "shell: 'C:\Users[myUserName]\AppData\Local\Programs\Git\bin\sh.exe',"

thank you works for me

why after updating my hyper preferences, I cannot be able to use commands like sudo and nodemon...

Thank you!

Why open command not works?

use start instead of open it works

Thanks!

to the ' novice coders ' who are out there, ( me included ) . who are facing the location error i.e 69th line in the above code.
@rafareyes7
uninstall hyper as well as git
again install hyper but this time keep the location as it is. install git with the pre entered location only.
then copy paste the hyper configuration code.
worked for me . good day.

Thank you!

This is Too Gooddd. Thanks man

before pasting and saving complete the installation of Git.
