Just for future reference, there are two ways in which you can use a backslash in a C# string:

1. By doubling it:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:\\Program Files\\VideoLAN\\VLC\\vlc.exe");

2. By using what's called a 'verbatim' string whereby you precede it with @:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"C:\Program Files\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe");

The Process.Start method should run any Windows .exe file, whether you've written it yourself or its part of the operating system.

However, if it's not in the current directory, then you'll need to include the full path so that the runtime can locate it.

So what do you mean by a 'custom' .exe file?
