Not getting the .txt output after running a process
The word "shell" in this context (UseShellExecute) refers to a graphical shell (similar to the Windows shell) rather than command shells (for example, bash or sh) and lets users launch graphical applications or open documents.

That means File Explorer, not a terminal shell.

✅ What is Repository pattern design and how to implement it
Counterproductive practices. In the case of repos over EF, you are laying a repo over an existing one (the DbSets in the context). And a much less powerful one to boot.

So, to protect existing apps, Windows doesn’t do >260 character paths unless you 1. Enable that registry setting, and 2. (iirc) Your application’s manifest indicates it has long path support

That’s 260. And for those apps, you can’t put a larger path in those buffers, otherwise they’ll blow up.

Apps would make path buffers of that size for use with OS calls involving paths.

By default, paths on Windows are limited to 260 characters for historical reasons.

How to overwrite a file that is used by another process?
@Erky all the ways you could force this would probably crash (or at least cause an exception in) the writing process.

ADO is lower-level than EF. Both have their uses, but EF does more for you.
