C# Windows-Form-Application Process.Start() 给出“访问被拒绝”错误

Question

I work on C# Windows-Form-Application (WinForms) and used the following code:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("x");

where 'x' is the path to the folder should be open (a local folder not in C:\ ).

The Problem is that when running the program it gives me "Access is denied" Error !

I Searched on Google but i did not find how to solve this problem.

Note: This Code works on Console Apps & Windows-Form (Dot Net framework).

This seems like a standard permissions issue. The account running the application does not have the correct permissions to access the folder. If you are debugging from Visual Studio, then try running VS as an administrator. If you are running an installation of the app then run the app itself as an administrator.

Update:

Looks like simply calling Process.Start with the folder path will not work in .net core. In .net core you need to specify the application as well as the folder path:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("explorer.exe", "[FolderPath]");
