I want to execute a cmd line tool to process data. It does not need to be blocking. I want it to be low priority. So i wrote the below
Process app = new Process();
app.StartInfo.FileName = @"bin\convert.exe";
app.StartInfo.Arguments = TheArgs;
app.PriorityClass = ProcessPriorityClass.BelowNormal;
app.Start();
However i get a System.InvalidOperationException with the msg "No process is associated with this object." Why? how do i properly launch this app in low priority?
PS: Without the line app.PriorityClass = ProcessPriorityClass.BelowNormal; the app runs fine.
