As mentioned by the other answers you can use     Process Start  notepad somefile txt      However  there is another way     You can instance a Process object and call the Start instance method     Process process   new Process      process StartInfo FileName    notepad exe     process StartInfo WorkingDirectory    c  temp     process StartInfo Arguments    somefile txt     process Start      Doing it this way allows you to configure more options before starting the process   The Process object also allows you to retrieve information about the process whilst it is executing and it will give you a notification  via the Exited event  when the process has finished   Addition  Don t forget to set  process EnableRaisingEvents  to  true  if you want to hook the  Exited  event
