MY code :

DesiredCapabilities capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities(); capabilities.setCapability("app","E:\citymobile\basil1-win32-x64\basil1.exe"); capabilities.setCapability("platFormname", "windows");

	capabilities.setCapability("Platformversion", "1.0");
	WindowsDriver driver=new WindowsDriver( new URL("http://127.0.0.1:4723"),capabilities);

It will not work with selenium4.

Selenium 3 is supporting there is no issue. However the issue with Selenium 4 which is not supporting WinApp driver. Any inputs to support selenium 4?

I did not test it, but it should be possible when using v5 of Appium.WebDriver and the according Appium server bridge as outlined here.
