'break' stops early from a loop. It doesn't run programs. We'll need much more information about your setup to help though.

Break from a program.
Break doesn't run anything, it pre-maturely cancels a while, for, or repeat loop. Unless you nested the entire operation inside of the desktop, you can't just "break" out into it. You have to run the desktop program again.

It may be actually possible depending on what you're thinking of.
while true do
print("Whatever")
break
os.sleep(0)
end
shell.run("/path/to/desktop")
