Title Body

How can I find the current directory for a .NET application running under the Visual Studio debugger? Update 1 . To be clear: I don't want to change the code or get information in the program itself - I just want to get information about the application currently being debugged. While debugging a .NET Windows Forms application (mixed VB.NET and C#) I was not sure from which location a XML file was being read from. I expected the current directory to be the application's directory. However, using Process Explorer, properties for the process result in: D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\ (right click on process/Properties/tab Image/Current Directory). Hovering the cursor over the process in the main view of Process Explorer revealed a different result (see below for a screenshot): D:\dproj\DTASCall\DTASuperCharge\bin\ What is correct? Starting the application standalone displays the expected current directory, D:\dproj\DTASCall\DTASuperCharge\bin\ in the Process Explorer process properties window.
