Answer 1

Code example below, make sure you have your permissions setup correctly:

System.Diagnostics.Process yourProcess = new System.Diagnostics.Process();

// Set the directory   
yourProcess.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = Request.MapPath("~/"); //or wherever your file is

// Set the filename
yourProcess.StartInfo.FileName = Request.MapPath("bla.exe"); 

// Start the process    
yourProcess.Start();
