C# how to google something without opening the browser, and then go to the first search result?

Without the user seeing the browser window? I want the program to search for something secretly on the internet and copy the text of the first website as the search result.

You can use the I'm Feeling Lucky URL and an HttpWebRequest:

    public Uri GetFirstResult(string term)
    {
        // Use the I'm Feeling Lucky URL
        var url = string.Format("https://www.google.com/search?num=100&site=&source=hp&q={0}&btnI=1", term);

        HttpWebRequest req = HttpWebRequest.CreateHttp(url);
        return req.GetResponse().ResponseUri;
    }
