Win32Exception on System.Diagnostics.Process.Start() in Mono 6.6.0.113 #17204
Description
Steps to Reproduce
- Build a .NET Framework project that does
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(someFileOrFolderPath) - Run the application in Linux using Mono 6.6.0.113
Current Behavior
When attempting to open a folder:
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception : Cannot find the specified file
Unhandled Exception:
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception (0x80004005): Cannot find the specified file

When attemtping to open a file (for example a text file or image):
System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception : Access denied

Expected Behavior
A folder should be opened in the default file manager (like Thunar) when opening a folder with:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(directoryPath)
Files should be opened in their default editors or viewers when attempting to open a file with:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(filePath)
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start() works as expected (i.e. the file or folder is opened) in Linux when using Mono 4.6.2 or 5.18.0.240, but throws a Win32Exception when using Mono 6.6.0.113.
