I'm making a custom installer program and I have a next and back button, and 2 forms, Form1 and Form2. I click the next button and instantly the next form is there. I tried to do that with .show and .showdialog but if I do that another window pops up to either replace or add to the current form.
View 9 RepliesI am currently working on a program that has several buttons in it lined up. Each button goes to different applications (.exe programs). The program I am making is suppose to be a fullscreen program and won't let you see any of Windows when it's running.
Therefore I want to make a "back" button that always stays on top of any application and when I push it it will take me back to my WindowsForm (startpage of the program).I am also wondering if you can make it so all .exe programs only can run ONCE. So if I press one of the buttons saying "open notepad" I want it to work so it can't open Notepad once again making it two notepads open. Just go back to the first Notepad opened.

View 6 RepliesComputer.FileSystem.FileExists(Environment.GetFolderPath(ProgramFiles) to get the Program Files directory in my application. The problem is that when running on a 64 bit version of Windows 7, I am getting the Program Files (x86) directory, not the 64 bit directory.

First time the program is opened, the user creates an account with it and a file is created stating that an account has already been made, and then the user logs in.Second time its loaded, if that file exists, don't show the NEW USER page, and allow the user to log in, checking their details against the local file.Now whats best, a txt file? A db?Whatever method as I need all the settings chosen in the program to be there every time it loads up...Also, Is it best to make this program have to be installed so it has access to all the resources on the computer?

View 1 RepliesI'm a beginner. I recently developed an application in C#. Now I wanna develop its setup. I read a few articles online, followed them, found it very easy. I also changed the default location of application folder from C:Program Files to C:. My application folder is containing a few folders besides exe and dlls which I added manually.
Now here the problem starts, when I install the application and change the location say from c: to d:, my files (all files including exe and dll) are going to user's given location. But my folders (all folders in application folder) are going to c: (which is default location given while creating setup). But I want output files and that folders at same location
