i am working on a small project in c# and i am trying to run a command using the windows command prompt in the background (without showing the command prompt). Ive done this in vb.net before using : Shell("netsh wlan stop hostednetwork", 0) , but can't find how to do it in c#. Anyone know how?

public static string ProcessStarter(string processName, string argString, string workingDirectory = null)
{
var prs = new Process();
if (!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(workingDirectory))
{
prs.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = workingDirectory;
}
prs.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
prs.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
prs.StartInfo.RedirectStandardError = true;
prs.StartInfo.FileName = processName;
prs.StartInfo.Arguments = argString;
// LOOK HERE
prs.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
prs.Start();
string result = prs.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
string resultErr = prs.StandardError.ReadToEnd();
return string.IsNullOrEmpty(result) ? resultErr : result;
}
