Function is not running and creating the text file

I created the function pro:

the write function writeproc:

when i run the code it is not doing anything.... :(
This is the main method for the console app that i have made in c#.

[STAThread]
static void Main(String args)
{
pro();
}


pro function:

static void pro()
{

Process localAll = Process.GetProcesses();
String path_pro = "C://KEYLOGS//processes.txt";
foreach(Process proc in localAll)
{
writeproc(path_pro, proc);
}
}


writeproc function:

static void writeproc(String p, Process the_process)
{
if (!File.Exists(p))
{
using (StreamWriter sw = File.CreateText(p))
{
//empty file generated.
}
}
else
{
using (StreamWriter sw = File.AppendText(p))
{
sw.WriteLine("Process: "+the_process);
}
}
}


C:

localAll

This may be the cause of two different things.

1: The folder does not exist on your C drive so the file can't be created. (It will throw a System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException)
Add Directory.CreateDirectory(p); to the start of your writeproc method.

System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException

Directory.CreateDirectory(p);

2: You don't have enough rights to write to your C drive. (It will throw a System.UnauthorizedAccessException)

System.UnauthorizedAccessException

I suggest adding a breakpoint in your writeproc method to see what exception is being thrown.

localAll

pro

Process.GetProcesses()
