To make sure any program will run, the desktop is started from a batch file loop. If the icon on the desktop is configured for a normal program the desktop will terminate and pass the program name to execute to the looping batch file. When the normal program terminates the batch file will restart the desktop. If you select "Exit" from the desktop it will terminate the looping batch file and you are back at the command prompt. Test the XFDOS distribution for details. I use djgpp, the system() command allows to execute normal DOS programs from the desktop too.
