    map network drives and execute program?

    I'm trying to write a small piece of code that disconnects two mapped drives and then remaps them. Then I want it to execute a program. I have it executing the program if it's notepad for example but not anything locate on a drive. Also how can I disconnect and map the drives?

    Here is what I have:

    Code:
    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Text;
    using System.Threading.Tasks;
    using System.Diagnostics;
    
    namespace ConsoleApplication3
    {
        class Program
        {
            static void Main(string[] args)
            {
                Process schedule = new Process();
    
                notepad.StartInfo.FileName = "notepad.exe";
                notepad.Start();
            }
        }
    }
    This launches notepad, but how would I launch something in z:\program.exe ?

    I think like:

    Code:
    notepad.StartInfo.FileName = @"Z:\program.exe";
    The @ means string literal. Instead you could have written "Z:\\program.exe"

    Perhaps one of these links might be revealing:
