running System.Diagnostics.Process hidden and getting a timeout

[Sonnich Jensen]

Hi all

I am using System.Diagnostics.Process to execute an Exe or bat of the customers wish.
We use cmd /c to do this.
This works well in Windows 7, even when running things that expects and input (such as pause - they are bypassed)
In windows 10 this does not work, it hangs at the "pause" (press space to continue...). Adding a timeout will end execution.

In win7 I dont even see the standard output for "pause", it is just ignored.
In windows 10 I dont see it wither, but it hangs there for the timeout.

Have anybody else worked with this?
