Restart application using C#

Question

How can I restart my WPF application using C#?

Answer 1

I don't think there's a direct method in WPF like there is in WinForms. However, you could use methods from the Windowns.Form namespace like this: (You might need to add a reference to the System.Windows.Form assembly)

System.Windows.Forms.Application.Restart();  System.Windows.Application.Current.Shutdown(); 

Answer 2

The following is the best solution I found, you don't need to add a reference to System.Windows.Forms, instead you need add the namespace System.Diagnostics which you already has a reference to its assembly:

Process.Start(Application.ResourceAssembly.Location); Application.Current.Shutdown();
