Whats wrong with this code...? (one line code, please help) - L3g1tWa5te - Oct 31, 2010

Code
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("mbam.exe /update")

It keeps on saying its wrong when I can simply run it from the Run menu, but I can't do it in VB. Now thats just messed up. Can someone tell me whats wrong? I am trying to add a parameter! Something I am missing?...😭😖

Its suppose to Update Mbam.

Regards,

Code
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(Chr(34) + "mbam.exe /update" + Chr(34))

Maybe?

What error do you get?
Try copy / pasting these (try each one not sure but worth a shot!)

Code
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("mbam.exe/update")

Code
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(mbam.exe /update)
(this this will work)
OR try to declare mbam.exe / update first.

E.G.
Dim mbam as mbam.exe /update

Failcode.

Dim MBAM As String = "C:\Path\To\mbam.exe /update"
Shell(MBAM)
