## Summary
Execute a statically compiled PE file (e.g., compiled with /MT) with the specified arguments. This PE must first be cached in the agent using the `register_file` command before being executed.
{{% notice info %}}
Executables must be compiled for the architecture of the machine. e.g., if Apollo is running on a 64-bit machine, compile the executable for x64.
