Web service executes in the context of the ASP.NET worker process on the Web server. If you use the Process.Start method in an ASP.NET Web page or server control, the new process executes on the Web server with restricted permissions.

Give permission for ASP.NET worker process account to interact with desktop or allow ASP.NET worker process to run in SYSTEM account.

  1. Open Control Panel and follow these steps: For Windows NT: click Services. For Windows 2000, Windows XP, and .NET Server: click Administrative Tools, and then click Services.
  2. Double-click IIS Admin Service.
  3. On the Log On tab, select the Allow Service to Interact with Desktop check box. Remember to run IIS Admin Service as a local system.
  4. Stop and restart the IIS Admin Service.
