By using following code[C#], we can know the path where googlechrome is installed. But, this code first starts chrome.exe, then takes its path. My question is without starting chrome.exe, how can I know the path? ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(); startInfo.FileName = "chrome.exe"; string argmnt = @"-g"; startInfo.Arguments = argmnt; String path = null; try { Process p = Process.Start(startInfo); path = p.MainModule.FileName; p.Kill(); } catch (Exception e) { return String.Empty; }
