Monitor The Registry For Changes Similar To How Sysinternals Process Monitor ?
Jan 31, 2011
Can I monitor the registry for changes similar to how sysinternals process monitor does it in VB? I have checked many different articles and C# samples but not come any closer to getting an answer, I would like to know if there an easier way (a VB sample perhaps)that you folks can share. Ultimately I'd like to be able monitor other things too like file system, processes etc but wonder most about how the registry can be done in VB...Would using system.management be a start? Or WMI? if so is there a nice VB sample..

Second, I have a question which I have been trying to find answer for a wile but without any success.How can I monitor Windows Process for any change (create/kill) after run my app ? the only way I have think about it is that used two lists, the first one load the process list on it and the second refresh each 1 sec to get the new one and compare the two to know the difference, but its useless because you cant know who killed or created the process and other information.
As I have been read before, I guess there is a need to implement windows API, hook to detect process changes ? Is there any idea or solution for this?
Note: I am using VB.NET (2010)

So I got this idea to write a very small application for a school project that raises a balloon from the system tray everytime a new process is getting launched or an existing process quits.
With my current code, I am getting the list of processes using a timer.This list needs to be compared with the previous list and detect differences (if this is possible, or should I use a different concept)? I have no clue how to do this.
I currently have:A ListView (ListView1), with the View property to "Details" A Timer (at a 5000ms interval), with the following

Firstly im aware that the code below will auto run the default browser.
Code:
But i need to find a way of finding out what the default browser is. Is there a registry setting that displays this? also whats the best way to monitor for a process start or exit?
I was thinking about making a listview that updates every second checking for new entrys or entrys that have gone. But is this the best way if i only need to monitor 1 or 2 proceses?
I did write(and worked before)

But thats not working now.

I need to launch a VB6 application (which i am already doing fine with the Process namesapce) but I would like to be able to send status updates back to the VB.Net app which fired up the process. I looked into the standardinput and standardoutput but it looks like that is only intended for console apps. Any suggestions on methods to do that? I need something that is bullet proof and instant. I dont want to write logs out to a file and use filesystemwatcher to monitor for changes.

Bit of a Noobie question here, I have a process, for example[code]...
I need to launch the process from within code in a form or module and I want to monitor its progress, for example with a progress bar.
The problem I have is that in order to use a 'progress form' I have to show a form modally, then kick off the process (usually with a button) and allow a cancel option.
I want the form to show then start running automatically without user intervention.

what is the method to tell when a user starts or stops a process? My company makes a software package that allows a tie in from vb. I want to make a package to allow me to start and stop the software remotely and to monitor when the software is running or not.Ideally there would be some sort of event in windows when the user starts or stops the software. I imagine there is some sort of way to do this with a timer, but I am sure that windows will have some sort of event process when the program starts. I have googled this and looked through the xtremevbtalk forums for this but I am not quite sure as to what keywords to use.

My application periodically starts console programs with process.start. I need to monitor the output of the programs in "realtime".
For example, the program writes the following text to the console: Processing...............
Every second or so a new dot appears to let the user know the program is still processing. However,... until the programm outputs a CR/LF, I am not able to retrieve the standard output of the program (while it is still running).
What can I do to get the output in realtime for - let's say - piping it into a database for instance in VB.NET?

I was just wondering if mixing SyncLock blocks and Monitor.Enter/Exit statements is dangerous. I know SyncLock uses Monitor and a Try block in the background, but are there any problems with using the two together for thread synchronization?

[code]Seems to fetch data from my one and only internal IDE drive.The line objWriter.Write("Active: {0} ", queryObj("Active")) does not work if you change up the data in between the first set of quotes. Thus changing Active: {0} to Active: {1} causes an error that the Try Catch doesn't catch (this for...next is in a try catch).I assumed that the stuff inside the quotes was just text and could be changed to anything? Why doesn't the try catch catch it?Doesn't read a USB external drive when attached.i changed {0} to {1} and it crashes.

I have put together an app to monitor several directories. The basic principle is to replicate from a Master directory to a Shared directory when specific criteria is met (specific file types are changed, renamed or deleted within the Master directory)Everything seems to work fine with excpetion to MS Office documents. e.g. If I work on a .bmp and save it, it will trigger a changed event. However, with office documents (Word in this example), it appears to rename the MYDOC.DOC file to <freefile>.TMP then rename a different <freefile>.TMP to MYDOC.DOC. This would not be a problem if it was to trigger the Changed or Created event for MYDOC.DOC, but it doesn't. It wouldn't be so bad if the first TMP file was named the same as the second TMP file as I could mirror the process using the Renamed event.I can not filter out TMP files as we use TMP files within the Master directory, albeit for a different purpose.I would use an off the shelf produt, but the files need to be copied to different shared directories based on specific criteria so I can not seem to find a suitable product that fits my needs.
