Is there a way to open a website in the default browser in c#?

Question

I am a c# noob and I am making a console app to sporadically make you lose the game by open the website and writing "the game!"

I am trying to make it open a link to the game's website, but it does not work.
What I am using, but doesn't work is what MS docs says which is System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://website.com");
I use windows 11, MS edge for default browser.

This is how you open websites from C#. If it doesn't work, please specify what is your OS and your default browser? — r0den, Jul 12 '22 at 19:46
You will not see the website open from the console app - your browser will just have a tab with that url open. — duerzd696, Jul 12 '22 at 19:54

How to open a web page from my application?

the default for the useShellExecute is now false, so you have to explicitly set it as true.
