How to start `powercfg.exe -energy` from a .NET app?

Question

When I

using (var process = new Process
{
    StartInfo = new ProcessStartInfo
    {
         FileName = \"powercfg.exe\",
         Arguments = \"-energy\",
         


        

Answer 1

I'm afraid I cannot duplicate your results; I get the results file as expected. But if it helps, perhaps my testing parameters will help you narrow down what may be the culprit in your environment:

• Running Visual Studio 2010 as Administrator
• Targeted .NET 4 Client Profile
• Compiled both x86 and Any CPU binaries
• Computer is running Windows 7 x64

Answer 2

Set the WorkingDirectory to the path energy.dll and powercfg.exe is located.
