How to start a separate application?

[Jeff Connelly]

Basically just want to "open" a file the same way Windows would do it if you
double-clicked on it, invoking the correct application depending on the file
extension. How to do that from C# code, assuming you just have the file
location and name?

The following should do the trick:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"C:\readme.txt");
