How to copy in another place???

Question

Hi I wonder if there is a way to programmatically copy an app (exe) to another location (d:	est) when this app starts??? Best Regards.

Yes you could use code such as this: using System; using System.IO; using System.Reflection; class Test { static void Main() { string currentPath = Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location; string name = Path.GetFileName(currentPath); string newPath = @d:	est\ + name; try { File.Copy(currentPath newPath true); } catch (Exception ex) { Console.WriteLine(ex.Message); Console.ReadKey(); } } } Notice that this only copies the executable's file to another location - it doesn't move it. Moving it using normal C# code would be impossible because the file is locked by the operating system whilst it's executing.
