Question

I am developing an application that needs to use regini (because of legacy reasons) to insert something into the registry. I have been trying to do this in such a way the the user of the application is not aware of this. I have written the following code:

System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo pi = new ProcessStartInfo();    pi.FileName = @'c:\windows\system32\regini.exe'; pi.Arguments = name; pi.WorkingDirectory = Utils.AppSettings.WorkingDirectory.ToString();     pi.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden; pi.RedirectStandardError = true; pi.RedirectStandardOutput = true; pi.UseShellExecute = false;   Process p = new Process(); p.StartInfo = pi; p.EnableRaisingEvents = true; p.Start(); 

Unfortunately, I still see the ‘command’ window pop-up every time this code is executed. I was under the impression that

pi.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden; 

would prevent that. How can I prevent regini from opening its own command window?

Try to add this line:

pi.CreateNoWindow = true;
