If you haven't copied the file to the output directory in Visual Studio, then you should be able to get it (and run it) as follows:

string exeName = "whatever.exe";
string path = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location;
path = System.IO.Directory.GetParent(path).FullName;
path = System.IO.Directory.GetParent(path).FullName;
path = System.IO.Directory.GetParent(path).FullName + "\\" + exeName;
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(path);
