Determine application directory in a Windows Service

[Buddy Ackerman]

I need to programatically determine the directory that the application/service is running from. If I use
Environment.CurrentDirectory it returns the System32 directory. Is there anyway to get this the correct directory?

Try:
System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly(). CodeBase
or
System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly(). Location

whichever you prefer for your situation. That will tell you where your
..NET service executable is.
