C# WebGL open email client Win32 exception
Hi,
I want to send an email in a WebGL build using C#. I used
try
{
Uri myUri = new Uri("mailto:anemailaddress@example.com?Subject=Hello%20again&body=TEST");
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(myUri.AbsoluteUri);
}
catch (Win32Exception e)
{
Debug.LogError(e.Message);
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Debug.LogError(e.Message);
}
to open an email client. But I get the following error as well as a Win32Exception : Success error

The solution is to use Application.OpenURL instead of Process.Start
Example:
Application.OpenURL("mailto:someone@gmail.com?Subject=Hello%20again&body=TEST");
I am pretty sure that unless you are running Unity/the game as an administrator you are not going to have rights to execute shell commands.
