Solution 1

may be text.exe is open in task manager see the process is open or not
if open you write the code below to stop the process

C#

Process[] processes = Process.GetProcessesByName("test.exe");
if (processes.Length > 0)
    processes[0].CloseMainWindow();

and then write your code to copy the file

Solution 2

The user you logged in you PC(under which the .exe file will run) needs read & execute permission to that directory where the exe file exists.
