Your code running on Server. From the client (browser) you are not allowed to execute these kind of commands. You can allow to execute the command by providing suitable permission for the worker process.

I created network sharing folder by coding and I want to open this folder after created by system.diagnostics.process.start it's open on local host but not after deployed my web on iis7

What you want to achieve exactly by that code? Are you trying to open the particular folder that exist on server in your browser? If so, it won't.

Hi,Not quite sure why the problem occurs, checkout bellow code
...
using System.Diagnostics;
...
var startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo();
startInfo.WorkingDirectory = // working directory
// set additional properties
Process proc = Process.Start(startInfo);
