I have developed application in mvc 5 from where I need to open next web application from link which runs only in IE < 9 ;but my application runs in firefox and is NOT supported in IE < 9. So I managed to open the application from Process.Start("IExplore.exe", http); which works fine in debug but while application is hosted it doesn't work. So I need a solution to open application from firefox in IE using backend c# code or javascript.

You can use the below

Process p = new Process();
p.StartInfo.FileName = "iexplore.exe";
p.StartInfo.Arguments = "http:\\\\www.google.com";
p.Start();

This will open Internet Explorer, and immediately load the website passed in as an argument.

Also, the Process class is part of the System.Diagnostics namespace. Be sure to reference it at the top of your code file.

if you are using windows 8 or higher then you can use

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("IEXPLORE.EXE", MyURLHere)

  • I am using this in asp.net mvc 5 web application and it works fine in debug in vs 2013 but when I host it in iis it doesnot works at all. And I have hosted it in local system with full permission. – user2273830 Jan 16 '15 at 10:58
  • Please verify whether the application user has access to the system processess. – Kaustav Banerjee Jan 16 '15 at 11:00
  • Yeah I have deployed in local system in iis and I think local system has full permission. – user2273830 Jan 16 '15 at 11:03
