I am trying to run a batch file automatically during a build from a TFS build workflow. I have added an InvokeProcess activity with the following:

 Arguments: "\\" + agent + " /accepteula -u username -p password -d C:\HelloWorld.bat" FileName: "PsExec.exe" OutputEncoding: System.Text.Encoding.GetEncoding(System.Globalization.CultureInfo.InstalledUICulture.TextInfo.OEMCodePage) WorkingDirectory: "C:\PSTools"

I have ensured that both the build agent and the build controller have access to the "agent" in question. I have also ensured the PsExec.exe is located in the "C:\PSTools" folder as defined.

When executing the build I get the error "File not found: PsExec.exe" Does anyone have any idea what would cause this error in this situation?

You can try with FileName: "C:\PSTools\PsExec.exe"

Actually this worked like a charm... originally I thought it didnt but I tried running the build again and apparently the changes to the workflow had not saved correctly. Thanks a lot!
You responded faster than I could edit my comment, this was the correct answer I am not sure why though since I thought the Working directory was supposed to point to the directory that the "FileName" is contained in.
