I want to run a .exe file and get some output from it using C# project. When I'm having the .exe file within the project, it's executing but not giving any output. But If I keep the .exe outside of the project and if i give that location , then the executable file is executing and output is returned.

I tried keeping the executable in the debug folder also. But same issue.

I want to keep the executable file within the C# project and i want to execute it.

Any help please? Thanks.

First, add the "WorkingDirectory" parameter to the ProcessStartInfo.

If that doesn't solve it then try moving it to a subfolder in your project. Maybe it is referencing a DLL (or some other resource) in your project rather than the system?

CodePudding user response：

The .exe file saved in the project cannot be exported. if your file path is correct. You can try to use "Process.Start(@" ")" object or "ProcessStartInfo" object to open

Code show as below:

  private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Process.Start(@"C:\test\bin\idea64.exe");
    }

    private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        //Public domain; no attribution required.
        ProcessStartInfo info = new ProcessStartInfo(@"C:\test\bin\idea64.exe");
        info.UseShellExecute = true;
        info.Verb = "runas";
        Process.Start(info);

    }

Run the project:

Hope it helps you.
