       {
           InitializeComponent();
       }

       private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
       {
           
           System.Diagnostics.Process process = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
           System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo();
           
           
           startInfo.FileName = "cmd.exe";
           startInfo.Arguments = "/ipconfig"; //Replace ipconfig with any command you may want :P
           process.StartInfo = startInfo;

Very nice! However, this is why I like C++, you can replace all of the above code with a simple line:

Code:
system("ipconfig")

Nobody said you had to use the Process class in .NET (the VisualBasic dll contains Shell(): https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xe736fyk%28v=vs.90%29.aspx), but the equivalent of Process.Start() in C++ is much more complex. Also, system() is not a good idea.
