This does not work - DatePicker.exe
does not open, and there are no errors:
Process.Start(@"C:\Program Files (x86)\MyJournal\DatePicker.exe");
But this works
Process.Start(@"C:\Users\Public\Desktop\MyJournal.lnk");
Link from desktop points to the same path as above.
Why does the first example not work?
UPDATE.
As suggested I have tried to set the working directory. But no luck so far. This did not work for me.
ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
startInfo.WorkingDirectory = @"C:\Program Files(x86)\MyJournal";
startInfo.FileName = @"DatePicker.exe";
startInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
Process myProcess = Process.Start(startInfo);
UPDATE # 2 ;
It finally works with
var psi = new ProcessStartInfo(@"C:\Program Files (x86)\MyJournal\DatePicker.exe");
psi.WorkingDirectory = @"C:\Program Files (x86)\MyJournal";
Process.Start(psi);
Is it possible it's not running because the default directory is not set? Try using a StartInfo parameter instead, and set the working directory to the same as the program directory.
Have you tried starting it from the Command Promt? If the application is working fine when manually opening it, it may be because of UseShellExecute
begin true by default.
Try startInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
According to MSDN startInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
is ignored when UseShellExecute
is true or if the UserName
and Password
properties are not null .
