Visual C# GUI stops responding when process.WaitForExit(); is used

Question

I am creating a GUI application using Visual C# 2005 (net framework 2). I use the following code to start a process:

Process process = new Process();
process

In order to receive a callback on Exited event, the EnableRaisingEvents must be set to true.

Process correctionProcess = Process.Start(startInfo);
correctionProcess.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
correctionProcess.Exited += new EventHandler(ProcessExited); 

Using exited worked well for me and gave me great flexibility to either run sequentially, partially concurrently, or all at once - without locking the UI.
