Hello Billy,

We cannot expect any windows form UI come from an ASP.NET application. The
"Notepad.exe" will be running in a different desktop and we cannot view
it. Anyway, you may find it in Task Manager.

>From security, we need enough pemission to run such an application, for
example, we may need Read permission to the folder of "Notepad.exe" and
Write permission to temp folder. When you need to run such an application,
you may try impersonate in ASP.NET:
