I 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).
How do I make a button_click end a process? I tried process.stop and tskill but neither of those worked. more specifically, i want a button to end explorer.exe.

How can I make my program watch another process? For example if I open internet explorer it shows the process as iexplore.exe. Now if I wanted to close my program when I closed iexplore.exe how would I do that?
I have tried to make a program not able to be forced to close by naming it the same as a system process. However, this only works on XP, not on Vista. I don't actually mind if the program is closed but I would like something to happen when it is, thus being able to end the process is not good.Is there any event that can contain code to be run when the process is stopped? I'm guessing not but it's worth asking. If not, is there any other way to stop this? Maybe have 2 programs continually watching for each other or something?

I am working on a Windows Service project that is supposed to start automatically with Windows and it has a timer to check if a certain process is created (in this case "iexplorer") the service should terminate that process. In addition, the user should not be able to stop the windows service.
I was able to create the process and make start with Windows. I changed the property (CanStop) to False but that did not help because after a few tries the servise stops. I used a For-Next loop in the timer to check for the process to terminate but unfortunatly, it didn't work. The code I used is:
Dim theProcesses() As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("Iexplore") For Each currentProcess As Process In theProcesses
I wrote a program using VB 2008 Express Edition and noticed that when I close the program (by clicking the "X" top right corner), sometimes the program is still showing in processes within Task Manager.What do I need to include in my programming to make sure this does not occur - i.e. make sure the process ends when I exit the program?

I have a circumstance where I'm popping up a dialog window containing a "Please Wait" message, running an SQL query, then replacing the "Please Wait" message with a DataGridView containing the collected results.The code I'm using for this is basically:
Dim X As New Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand X.CommandText = "SELECT some_data FROM someTable" Dim XAdapter As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(X)
[code]....
I would like to put the retrieval of this data into a background thread, so that the UI doesn't freeze up while I'm loading larger datasets, but, having done this, I'd also like to allow the user to cancel and close the dialog, if accessing the data takes longer than they want to wait.At the moment, this Dialog window can take some arbitrary SQL string and display the results (using SQLDataAdapter) without any extra code.How can I make this process interruptible, while also retaining the ease of access of the SQLDataAdapter?

My app starts an On-Screen Keyboard process like this:
Dim PID as System.Diagnostics.Process : PID = Process.Start("C:WindowsSystem32osk.exe") :
[CODE]...
It seems to work 90% of the time. However, sometimes the PID.Kill() fails because it says the process already exited. At this point the OSK is always still there on screen. Yes, I know my code should be testing to see if the process is still running before trying to kill it, but given that the OSK is still on screen..
I have a program that starts another program after setting the regkeys basically the program continually syncs the calandar of outlook and another application.I set the regkeys than launch the c:sync.exe app. I have tried a simple process.start and launching the process as a thread and they both do the same thing: The other process starts and works as it should but my main program goes "White screen" or "not responding" until the process.start has exited.
I want the process.start to run in the background so if users click in my main app it responds and truly that they can access the context menu of my main app from the taskbar while the process.start is running.
