# Run a Project with Grid Runtime

To launch a project using **Grid Runtime**, open the project file with the Grid Runtime application.

1. Locate the **Grid Studio project file**.

2. Right-click the file.

3. Select **Show more options**.<br>

   <div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/Xanwkzw0LCMkXWHLMjnN" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

4. Click **Open with → Grid Runtime**.<br>

   <div align="left"><figure><img src="/files/wQuHBFfOa4AxKfAIZPHY" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

The project will then launch in **Grid Runtime mode**, opening the configured runtime interface in fullscreen.

{% hint style="info" %}
On **Windows 10**, the **Open with → Grid Runtime** option is typically available directly in the standard right-click context menu.
{% endhint %}

### Alternative Method

You can also start a project by **dragging the project file onto the Grid Runtime application icon**.\
This will launch Grid Runtime and automatically open the selected project.

### Run a Project in Grid Runtime from the Command Line

A project can also be launched from the command line by passing the project file path as an argument to the **Grid Runtime** executable.

#### Example

<pre><code><strong>"Grid Runtime.exe" "C:\Path\To\Project\MyProject.grid"
</strong></code></pre>

If Grid Runtime is not available in the system path, use the full path to the executable:

```
"C:\Program Files\Stage Precision\Grid Studio\Grid Runtime.exe" "C:\Path\To\Project\MyProject.grid"
```

This launches Grid Runtime and opens the specified project directly.
