Run Python script on Click

from win11toast import toast

toast('Hello Pythonista', 'Click to run python script', on_click=r'C:\Users\Admin\Downloads\handler.pyw')
# {'arguments': 'C:\\Users\\Admin\\Downloads\\handler.pyw', 'user_input': {}}

Since the current directory when executing the script is C:\Windows\system32, use os.chdir() accordingly.

e.g. handler.pyw

On Windows, you can run a Python script in the background using the pythonw.exe executable, which will run your program with no visible process or way to interact with it.
