Running an EXE from C# using UWP

Question

I have searched and searched and seem to have hit a brick wall here. I am developing an application that generates an audio fingerprint to automatically search an audio data

Answer 1

I've been banging my head against a brick wall all night over this, but after hundreds of pages online I may have come up with a solution to my problem.

By referencing the "Windows Desktop Extensions For The UWP v10.0.14393.0" under "References > Universal Windows > Extensions" I can use:

await FullTrustProcessLauncher.LaunchFullTrustProcessForCurrentAppAsync();

The LaunchFullTrustProcess allows me to launch a trusted application from within my own application. I then modified the Package Manifest XML file and added the following under "capabilities"

I then added the following to "applications" in the XML

Then I modified the dependencies to make my application run on Windows Desktop machines

I was then able to launch the application. Once I finish writing the code I will test it and post the correct solution to the issue for future reference.
