"SystemInformer|?:\KLASS\Documents\Programs\SystemInformer\amd64\SystemInformer.exe" open """hstart64.exe"" /nowindow /runas ""<xydrive>\KLASS\Documents\Programs\SystemInformer\amd64\SystemInformer.exe""";
The icon is visible and the program starts.

Perhaps a usage should be added ?:\ in the program startup line...
