Answer 1

Process.Start()?

Answer 2

You can use the System.Diagnostics.Process object to start an external process.

EDIT:

Documentation

Example using some advanced features (input/output/error redirecting). It's in VB, but should be easy to port.

Answer 3

Process.Start("path of the program");

Answer 4

Process.Start("app.exe")

OR even better, wrap it in a Windows Service, publish a schema for it and consume through async request to a bus.
