System.Diagnostics.Process.Start


I am used to providing the path to the executable Process.Start(@"C:\Program
Files\ etc.". If I want to start an application that was published and
installed with click once what is the path to that application?

Thanks

Environment.CurrentDirectory ?

The only way I have found is to call the Internet address that the
application starts with such as www.yourserver.com/clickonce.application. If
the clickonce application placed an icon during install on the Program Menu,
you can call that icon. The physical address changes anytime the
application is updated.

That gives me the place where my application is running. When I put it in
the application I want to start the response is ugly. There has got to be a
better way!
