I have a program which is a authoring tool for making courses. I decided to create a screen recording feature for it using camstudio. The code I used to launch the exe is:
Process process = new Process();
process.StartInfo.FileName = "Recorder.exe";
process.StartInfo.Arguments = "";
process.Start();
When I am running the program in visual studio and step through the code it works fine and launches the recorder.exe with no errors. BUT when I make an installer for the project in visual studio 2010 and install the program, the program crashes when I press the button which should launch the recorder.exe.
I checked the windows error log and here is what it told me:
Application: Perform.exe Framework Version: v4.0.30319 Description:
The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.

Found a similar unanswered question on here: Why i'm getting a win32exception once i'm starting the Process?
If more information is need please let me know and I'll provide as much as I can. I have seen similar questions on here and other forums but none have given me the answer.
Thanks, Jim
