Running a VB.Net exe from a network share

Hi
does anyone know of a good sample that shows
the coding required to run an VB.net exe from a network share that works
with the local machine drives ie C:\

ie
place an vb.net exe on a shared drive on the network
Helpdesk could remotely take over a users machine
navigate to the network share via windows explorer or cmd prompt
Double click the exe and it would delete certain files from the local
machine

The reason for this is
A setup program that uses XCopy developed a bug that wrote files to the
wrong directories
this exe would clean up the users machine ready for the "Fixed" setup
programme

I tried lots of different role base permissions code but could not get it to
work
Any and all help would be appreciated
