Thanks so much it helped me so much,

But i wondering if there way to run it without add in C:\ ?

You can save the file to AppData or LocalAppData Folder.
Those folders are there for such reasons and do not need any administrator permissions on non-administrator systems.

Dim myLocalAppDataFolder As String = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.LocalApplicationData)
        Process.Start(myLocalAppDataFolder)

I would create a Folder just for my application in either one of those folders and use it as needed.
