Does a process started by C# Process.Start() inherit ErrorMode?

Question

If you call the WinAPI function CreateProcess ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms682425(v=vs.85).aspx ), you can choose if the new process should inherit the ErrorMode of the caller.

My question is if a process started with the C# Process.Start-method ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/e8zac0ca.aspx ) inherits the ErrorMode of the caller, of if it gets the default ErrorMode?

I can't seem to find this in the documentation on MSDN...

If you watch with resharper/ilspy and/or you watch the sources of .NET you'll see that in Process.StartWithCreateProcess(ProcessStartInfo startInfo) all the magic happens.

num2 is the variable that contains the dwCreationFlags . Your flag isn't visible anywhere. Sometimes StartWithCreateProcess sets the 0x8000000 ( CREATE_NO_WINDOW ) (if the CreateNoWindow parameter is set) and the 0x400 ( CREATE_UNICODE_ENVIRONMENT ) (if the system is NT based) flags, but that's all.
