Open folder which contains comma in its path

Question

I need to open folder through windows explorer using C#. It is working fine untill there is comma in folder path. Here is an example:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("explorer.exe", "C:\\folder\\another-folder\\123,456");

The error is: The path '456' does not exist or it is not a directory.

Any solution please :)

Answer 1

Try adding double quotes around your path:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("explorer.exe", "\"C:\\folder\\another-folder\\123,456\"");

Side-note: you might find it easier to write paths using a verbatim string literal, to avoid having to escape the slashes:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("explorer.exe", @"""C:\folder\another-folder\123,456""");
