Hi zimmer9;<br />
<br />
Instead of passing a path plus the filename just passed the filename without any path information something like the following.<br />
<br />

<pre><code id="code-20-39507950-1">string bankFilePath = &quot;C.ard.out&quot;);

if (File.Exists(bankFilePath))
{
    File.Delete(bankFilePath);
}</code></pre>

Hi zimmer9;

string bankFilePath = "C.ard.out");

if (File.Exists(bankFilePath))
{
    File.Delete(bankFilePath);
}

If you need to you can get the path the currently running EXE using:<br />
<br />
string startupPath = System.IO.Path.GetDirector<wbr />yName(Syst<wbr />em.Reflect<wbr />ion.Assemb<wbr />ly.GetEntr<wbr />yAssembly(<wbr />).Location<wbr />);
</div>


If you need to you can get the path the currently running EXE using:

string startupPath = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location);

How would you recode the attached C# Console application so that the executable can run in the same directory as the input file? Currently the exe runs fine as long as it is not in the same directory path as the input file. When I put the exe in the same directory as the input file, the Visual Studio Just-In-Time Debugger appears.<br />

How would you recode the attached C# Console application so that the executable can run in the same directory as the input file? Currently the exe runs fine as long as it is not in the same directory path as the input file. When I put the exe in the same directory as the input file, the Visual Studio Just-In-Time Debugger appears.

How to run an exe file in the same directory as the input file for a C# console application using VS2010?

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.
