[meneleos]

Hi.

in visual studio :

            Process startProcess = new Process();
            startProcess.StartInfo.FileName = Globals.BinaryName;
            startProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "--withkey";
            startProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
            startProcess.Start();

for auto it ? i want to run it > test.pyd test.exe > test.pyd => change exe to pyd

My code :

ShellExecute('test.pyd')

no.

pyd is exe file.

Hmm.. I've only known these pyd files as just dll files ready for python importing. To distinguish from the normal dlls.

I did so to hide the .exe extension. 

pyd or pyc or ml or nd or qk 

:/

c#

            Process startProcess = new Process();
            startProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "test.pyd";
            startProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "--withkey";
            startProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
            startProcess.Start();

it's work.

You know the file is really an executable, so you cannot hide it from yourself.

This forum does not support blatant malicious coding, so I suggest you try give a legitimate purpose for this.

malicious coding ? No. This is auto patcher. 

exe files should be confidential. If exe file is entered, auto update remains disabled. 

sorry my bad english

Sorry, I don't get it/

Under what specific circumstances do you need to disguise an executable file?

And I want to have an acceptable answer to that question before this thread goes any further.
