When you done working with the Process class, you should dispose of it. To dispose of the type directly, call its Dispose method in a try/finally block. To dispose of it indirectly, use a language construct such as using

Here is example with using

using(Process cmd = new Process()){
   cmd.StartInfo.WorkingDirectory = currentDirectory;
   cmd.StartInfo.FileName = Directory.GetCurrentDirectory() + "/fping.exe";
   cmd.StartInfo.RedirectStandardInput = true;
   cmd.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
   cmd.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
   cmd.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
   cmd.StartInfo.Arguments = pingcmd;

   cmd.Start();
}
