View 1 RepliesI have a 32 bit application that shells a second application that can be 32 or 64-bit depending upon the computer it's running on. I only want one instance of the second application to run at a time, and I need the first application to prevent the second from being launched more than once. I want to be able to use GetProcessesByName to obtain the running processes. This seems to work fine. It's when I attempt to obtain the module data to find out what folder the second application was run from that things fall apart.

I'm working on a website where we'll be getting a lot of videos to be uploaded. To keep things simple and secure, I'm just writing VB.net windows app to suck all the files in a directory in, allow you to set some options, and start the encode by spawning a new FFMpeg process.

View 4 RepliesI have to install whole bunch of self extracting files every now and then.. so, I was trying to automate the process...
Using process.start ("filename"), i was able to run the exe file. After that i send Alt U to Unzip the content.. Finally the Self Extractor sends message "xx files unzipped successfully..." or similar...
Now, how do I find out the the extraction is completed or the msgbox "xx files unzipped successfully..." popped up ? (I don't like to go thru the window title as there might be other thing going on...)
Ok this is what I am doing, at a specific time (set by user) a program (chosen by user) will lauch. What I would like to do is after said amount of time kill that program that the user chose. I currently am using ".waitforexit()" but this disables my application.

what I am trying to do its to automate a user interraction by code.First I have a button named "start" once pushed I navigate with webbrowser to download a file. What I try to do it is to find the window "File download" by his title name, I allready made a seperate thread to loop into to list of process until it found the window "File download"
Where I need help, it is with the process list. I try that code below but I don't see the process "File download" in the list.and once I found it I would like to use sendMessage() api to simulate the click of save.I would like to find another window after to catch the window "save as" and click save and if the window that ask for overwriting appear I would like to find it too and click yes.
Why I use webbrowser instead of httpwebrequest it is because the web site required to login, i try using cookie, etc. No success so I decided to use webbrowser, I navigate first into the login page, I login manually and once it is done I can click the button to start downloading. I want to make an automatic download loop, I have lot of files to download on that site, sometimes .doc and other times it is .pdf
I didn't found a way yet how to force webbrowser to ask for downloading .pdf instead of opening it in acrobat, if someone can help me for that point too

In my last information seeking I found the answer on a systemic level.

Now, I need to find data on the process level and it is documented in a far sparser manner than I am used to seeing. I dont know if the answer is in psapi.dll or kernel32.dll is. I don't know what approach to take since there is little information.
I am setting some variables when my process starts running. I want to access them in a vb script (may be using WMI or if any other way possible). I am able to see these using Process Explorer utility given by Microsoft, but how to access them in vb script?
View 1 Repliesif there was a bad virus on my computer and I wanted to make sure that every time that the Application tried to run, I would Kill That Process? Something that Might Look like this, but Idk..
Public Class Form1
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Timer1.Interval = 1000

Something that looks like that, yesterday I got the code on how to Kill a process by name, today I would like to learn how to ask the computer if that process is running, and if it is, Kill It.

I am trying to get a list of processes running on remote machine and the username running them. So far I've got:

For Each ps In System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcesses("myserver")
ListBox1.Items.Add(ps.ProcessName)
Next
I am attempting to make a piece of software that monitors a 3rd party process for injected code. I successfully made a program that uses readprocessmemory from kernel32 to search for strings in a process. My problem is that the process I am attempting to monitor is running as system and provides an access denied message when I attempt to query any information about the process. Including process.handle and process.modules. Are there any ways I can get this process' handle?
View 4 RepliesI'm fairly new to vb.net and trying to get information for a project at work! Basically I can list all the applications running on a machine, I cannot however retrieve the details of the user running it! At the moment I'm using the following code after importing System.ServiceProcess and System.Diagnostics.Process:
Public Sub GetProcess()
Dim pr As Process
A = 0
For Each pr In Process.GetProcesses(System.Environment.MachineNam e)
ReDim Preserve arrProcess(A)
arrProcess(A) = New String() {pr.ProcessName.ToString, Process.GetCurrentProcess.PrivateMemorySize64}
A = A + 1
Next
End Sub
I have tried using pr.StartInfo.UserName but that just returns the username of the person logged onto the machine.
I am using a System.Diagnostics.Process to execute dirquota.exe. I catch an exception at .Start() which is "The system cannot find the file specified".
I am now doing:
foreach (var fi in new DirectoryInfo(@"C:WindowsSystem32").GetFiles())
{
Console.WriteLine(fi.Name);
}
This outputs pretty much every file in that directory apart from dirquota.exe.
I have a context.Request.QueryString item that is returning the wrong value in the ProcessRequest method of a .ashx handler.
The code is like so:
Public Sub ProcessRequest(ByVal context As HttpContext) Implements IHttpHandler.ProcessRequest
Dim strOrderItems As String = Convert.ToString(context.Request.QueryString("OrderItems"))
End Sub
One of the values returned by "OrderItems" is wrong. How can I find out what process has called this method to fix the incorrect data?
I have a process serves as an application updater.It checks it's local cache of files and compares this against list of files online.On it's first run there are no files in the local cache and it therefore downloads ~100 of these files.[code]This appears to work very well, since Explorer confirms that all files are extracted and available.However when I later run this process again, it cannot verify the existence of 6 of these files and therefore tries to download them despite the fact that they are clearly both present and up to date.The offending code is a simple File.Exists call which appears to deny the local existence of these files, and therefore tries to get them again.The system continues to work well, but over time the continual downloading of these 6 files is going to get kind of silly.

View 4 RepliesI've got a winform that has a button that runs an exe from the command prompt (process). Since the cmd window pops up and goes away so fast, I need to kno if there's a way to capture the messages that were sent in the cmd window, within my Windows form. (like make it write to a log file)
View 1 RepliesI am having a bit similar task, which I am not able to get thru. I'll explain..I have two apps A and B, B is kind of a reminder application which runs in the background..but that is not important here, thing is when App B is open, it has a button which takes user to App A, I am doing that using Process.Start("A.exe") all good so far. Problem is I need to make sure that if any other instance of App A is running then I need to jump to that instance. I am able to check for the instance running using Process.GetProcesses() but I am not able to set focus to that running instance.
View 1 RepliesI have a user interface with pushbuttons, each starting a different process. Can I manage these pushbuttons via usb numpad? i.e. if 1 is pressed at numpad, pushbutton 1 will be clicked (so process 1 will start); if 2 is pressed at numpad pushbutton is 2 will be clicked and so on.

View 4 RepliesI have written a windows service that is meant to launch a notepad when a specific action happens. The problem i have is that even though the service launches notepad, the actual notepad it self is NOT visible. I know that it has been launced because i can see the process in the task manager. By the way the process is listed as a SYSTEM process rather than a process under my user name (i believe that is because my process is a "LocalSystem" one).

well, I must say I am a very beginner but want to get better, that is why I joined this forum.Anyway, I made a form with a button that opens a new form and a hidden cmd window (it closes it self automaticly).on the new form I have a label that says if "the program is running". I want that label to change to "Done!" when the process does not exist anymore.

View 1 RepliesI would like to show a sandglass or something while user waits for a process (parsing a text file).
View 2 RepliesI am using Visual Studio express 2008 to load a form, perform a task at a given interval. My problem is:
1) I am able to populate a textbox with the desired text (a pathname);
2) I can get the timer event to work perfectly;
3) The problem arises when the timer conditions are met and I need to perform a task based on the value of the text box.
4) The value from the textbox becomes lost and when i hold my mouse cursor over the textbox:

On a side note, the script runs perfectly when i hard code in the pathname, but this doesnt suit the work i would like this script to do.
