Google for strings.exe and run that on your exe. Then you will have to
have a bit of luck to decipher what everything means. Process explorer

That would mean that /? and /Help are not switches that your VisualBasicFile.EXE
recognizes when it parses a command line. Since it is your VisualBasicFile.EXE,
you are the one to do something about that.
