Can it be run in the CMD line window?
or you actually want to run a vbs from alteryx?

Presumably this script is saved in a .bat file.

You can run this as an event

1. Click the canvas / background of workflow

2. Click events in the configuration pane

3. Add > Run Command...

4. Browse for your .bat file and set when to run

Perhaps try using the full path of the .vbs file too.
