Your Question is not clear or let us know what are you trying to do?

From your existing approach it will not be possible as when you first time calls Myapplication.exe then its taking first argument and process is completing successfully and that process is no longer available so you cant use that process.

Even, if your application has not completed execution you can not pass argument again to same process as Argument is getting passed in Sub Main() which being called only once at starting the process.

Let us know what you are trying to achieve by passing second argument.

Solution 2

It appears that you are trying to pass multiple arguments to a single instance of your application using command line arguments.
Read this MSDN article[^] to see how this is done.
