Make sure "C:\ism\winkbmgr.exe" exist before starting process
If System.IO.File.Exist("C:\ism\winkbmgr.exe") Then
' Start process here ...
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("C:\ism\winkbmgr.exe")
End If

You may be missing a reference to

Quote:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start

on the other machines. There may be a deployment option to include reference libraries with your deployment build.
