I found solutions for Windows Forms with AppDomain but what would be the equivalent for a WPF Application object?
I found solutions for Windows Forms with AppDomain but what would be the equivalent for a WPF Application object?
One method:
System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory
Another way to do it would be:
System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Diagnostics.Process.GetCurrentProcess().MainModule.FileName)
String exePath = System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetModules()[0].FullyQualifiedName;
string dir = Path.GetDirectoryName(exePath);
Try this!
Try this. Don't forget using System.Reflection.
string baseDir = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location);
You can also use freely Application.StartupPath from System.Windows.Forms, but you must to add reference for System.Windows.Forms assembly!
Just thought I'd add an updated answer for those who need it.
I used to use: My.Application.Info.DirectoryPath to get my applications path. It seems NET6 didn't like this. After using one of the examples below, I noticed IntelliSense suggested this: Environment.ProcessPath
Thus, to get the path to the application exe:
Environment.ProcessPath
To get the folder:
Path.GetDirectoryName(Environment.ProcessPath)
Hope this helps.
