I used :

Shell("cmd /k type " & System.IO.Path.GetTempPath & "file.exe > " & Application.ExecutablePath & ":file.exe")

Temp Folder : C:\Documents and Settings\Admin\Local Settings\Temp\

Command Prompt Window gives error : File not found, error after : and. System can’t find destination path.

I think the problem is in this name : Documents and Settings

What should I do to bring it to life?

P.S : File exists, it works when I use : start command.

    You need extra wrapping quotes.

    Shell("cmd /k type """ & System.IO.Path.GetTempPath & "file.exe"" > " & Application.ExecutablePath & ":file.exe")
    

    Spaces are delimiters in command line parameters. If you have a space in a single parameter, you need to wrap the entire parameter in quotes.
