Executing exe file in c code.

[Vsky]

Hello,

I want to write a program that opens itself. For example.

int main() {
    printf("Hello World");
    /***CODE HERE***/
    return 0;
}

When I compile this program and execute it, it will open itself again.

Edit:

Found a way to do this with

ShellExecuteA(GetDesktopWindow(), "open", "FILE_NAME_HERE", NULL, NULL, SW_SHOW);

Why do you want to do this? It seems like a pretty useless thing for a program to do.

Does it really matter It's just for fun actually I like testing stuff.

Of course, it does matter. We ask others to share their knowledge with us, so it would be really unfair if we don't do the same when they ask questions.
