Collision between the ImageMagick version (6.5.4.10) of an installed application and the Magick.net 7.22.2.0 version of my project.

I am using Zbarimg.exe I have seen that it includes ImageMagick version 6.5.4-10, but my application uses ImageMagick.net version 7.22.2.0 by default and it seems that these are colliding.
For example, I use the zbarimg to read a barcode from the console and then I convert to PDF format from my app, the first time it works but if I run this process a second time my Magick.net will have no effect.

Any idea what could be happening?

Maybe you can get some information from debug logging (see documentation on how to enable that). It might be possible that the code of Zbarimg.exe is setting some environment variables that are used by ImageMagick. And that could cause the code of ImageMagick to fail. If you are using the AnyCPU version I would advise you to switch to either the x64 (preferred) or the x86 version of the library.

Hi,

I have fixed it by clearing the environment variables when I run the command within the process.

use proc.StartInfo.EnvironmentVariables.Clear();

Process proc = new Process();
            proc.StartInfo.FileName = barcodeEnginePath;
            proc.StartInfo.Arguments = ars;
            proc.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
            proc.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
            proc.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
            proc.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
            proc.StartInfo.EnvironmentVariables.Clear();
            proc.Start();

Regards.
