How to open an exe inside a windows form C#

Question

I need to open a . exe inside a Windows form in C#, how to proceed with this. I already searched the net and found the following example:

[DllImport("user32.dll", EntryPoint = "SetParent")]
public static extern IntPtr SetParent(IntPtr hWndChild, IntPtr hWndNewParent);

Process p = Process.Start(@"d:\TesteCS.exe"); 

Thread.Sleep(500);
SetParent(p.MainWindowHandle, panel1.Handle); 

the . exe opens but stays at the exact size of it and need it to be maximized.

Answer 1

You need to create an instance of ProcessStartInfo and settar the property WindowStyle for Maximized.

var startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(@"d:\TesteCS.exe");
startInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Maximimized;

Process.Start(startInfo);
