How to Open my Dax Studio from cmd.

Hi Friends,

 i am working for Client. I am connecting through VPN. All the Power BI Desktop tools have to open through cmd. I opened power bi desktop using cmd. 

runas /netonly /user:abc "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Power BI Desktop\bin\PBIDesktop.exe" it worked and opening .

Now i want to open DaxStudio in same way. i tried by giving runas /netonly /user: abc "C:\Program Files\DAX Studio\bin\DaxStudio.vsto"

But failing to open. Getting some error. Can you please guide how to open.

    First try whether the file and path is valid

    "C:\Program Files\DAX Studio\DaxStudio.exe"

     

    second step is to launch command prompt and paste "C:\Program Files\DAX Studio\DaxStudio.exe" and press enter. (Dummy step, just to make sure it is working)

     

    last and final step is 

    runas /netonly /user:abc "C:\Program Files\DAX Studio\DaxStudio.exe"

     

    Note: .vsto is visual studio tools for office add-in file.
