At the top of Form1 i did:

private Process zipFileDirectoryProcess;

In the constructor i did:

zipFileDirectoryProcess = new Process();
zipFileDirectoryProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "explorer.exe";
zipFileDirectoryProcess.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
zipFileDirectoryProcess.EnableRaisingEvents = true;
zipFileDirectoryProcess.Exited += new EventHandler(zipFileDirectoryProcess_Exited);


Then i have a method that is called from a button click event:

private void Process()
{
zipFileDirectoryProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = zipFileDirectoryProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = "/select," + Path.GetFullPath(t);
zipFileDirectoryProcess.Start();
this.TopMost = true;
}


Then in the bottom i have the Exited event:

private void zipFileDirectoryProcess_Exited(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            this.TopMost = false;
        }


The first problem is once i click the button that call the method and start the process after few seconds automatic its jumping to the Exited event !
I want that it will go/jump to the Exited event only when i close the Process window .

The second problem once its getting to the event Exited and trying to do the line: this.TopMost = false;  im getting an exception:
