I want to ask a question about windows errors.
This error appears when opening an .exe application without any content. i want to cause the same error in c++ code, also there is an error with user and password input.

You can use C++ code to cause the shell to try to execute the malformed .exe. It will then display the desired dialog.
Microsoft's ExecInExplorer Sample can be used for this purpose.
This is an example of using the Microsoft sample code -
