I am new to c# and I have a doubt about using a WinForm to complete a batch file with the arguments received by the form, execute the batch and create the specific files.
What I have:
WinForm -> 2 string variables (ip and user)
Batch file -> creating a .rdp file and its shortcut on the desktop with a personalized icon (the batch works when launched manually)
My problem is that the code works for the first time but if I try to change the variables the process doesn´t run and the files are not overwritten with the new information and I have an error saying I don´t have access.
WinForm code:
private void ok_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string ipText, userText, defaultFile, rdpFile;
ipText = this.ipOutput.Text;
userText = this.userOutput.Text;
defaultFile = "C:\\TerminalServer\\RDbatch.cmd";
rdpFile = "C:\\TerminalServer\\RD Arbeitsplatz.rdp";
Console.WriteLine("IP : " + ipText + "; USER : " + userText);
Process p = null;
try
{
p = new Process();
p.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
p.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
p.StartInfo.FileName = defaultFile;
p.StartInfo.Arguments = String.Format("{0} {1}", ipText, userText);
p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
p.Start();
p.WaitForExit();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine("Exception Occurred :{0},{1}", ex.Message, ex.StackTrace.ToString());
}
}

I was thinking of launching the process code if the file didn´t exist and if exist overwriting it but I am not sure how to go from here.
