How to start a process from windows service into currently logged in user’s session
c# windows service
I have this code in the OnStart Method of the windows service.
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("notepad.exe");
I am successfully able to start the windows service. However once the service has successfully started it doesn’t open the notepad.
This is a strange problem and as i am new to windows services, help is required.
Windows services don’t execute in the same context as the desktop.
Hence you won’t see the application running in explorer like you would if you launched it normally.
