I'm entering the URL http://localhost:9999/number from other web and it does open the folder just minimize:(

CLOSE_TAB = "<script>window.onload = window.close();</script>"
@app.route('/<number>')
def open_folder(number):
    try:
        home = str(Path.home())
        full_path = home + '/' + number
        folder_path = os.path.realpath(full_path)
        if os.path.exists(folder_path):
            #Open my folder by number
            os.startfile(folder_path)
            return CLOSE_TAB
        else:
            return FOLDER_NOT_FOUND
    except Exception as error:
        print(error)
        return "{}".format(str(error))


if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(host="localhost", port=9999)

Answer 1

Since Python 3.10 the function os.startfile has parameter show_cmd which takes one of the int values documented for Win32's function ShowWindow for parameter nCmdShow .

Among others there is

• 1 for normal
• 2 for minimized
• 3 for maximized

It is up to the started application if the argument is respected.
