Message: [QUOTE="kndg, post: 13610175"] Hi Sig, You can't catch the above exception because the exception is thrown during assembly binding process (before your Main method ever executed). If you want to catch this exception, you can do it through late binding (which involves Reflection) or by loading your executable through another Application Domain. Reflection is fairly complex for such a simple purpose, so I show you the second method instead; public class ApplicationWrapper { public static void Main(string[] args) { AppDomain newDomain = AppDomain.CreateDomain("My Domain"); try { newDomain.ExecuteAssembly("Path to your executable"); } catch (System.IO.FileNotFoundException) { Console.WriteLine("Required assembly not found!"); } } } Regards.
