This question may be vague but I was wondering if anyone has ever implemented an application that basically creates a UI to list and monitor all running applications you have running. This applies to many developers who might have multiple programs running continuously and it would be great to have an app that monitors these programs..or does anyone think it is just unnecessary.
I created a vb.net 2008 application to windows 7 with some functions that monitor a folder within "Programs". Folder you created during installation of this application. But every time you launch the software (the exe, after installing the client package) I get UAC and I ask for confirmation. I tried to edit the manifest (with admin user) but it always comes out. I would like to depart immediately launch the EXE application, without uac.
How would I program a monitoring application so that whenever a program is executed or a folder is opened, it will keep track of this information in a log?
I am trying to create a windows service that sits in the background waiting for programs to be started. When the programs start I want to be able to check a unique bit of information for each program (I believe GUIDs may provide this) to see what the program is. If the program is not allowed, I aim to provide a warning to the user and possibly close the program. The aim of the application is to identify when users are attempting to install additional software on to the computer so simply monitoring for a certain executable wouldn't work as msiexec is called for all MSI's and as I only want to stop blacklisted programs...this wouldn't work.
I am sure this can be done, as Visual Studio is basically built this way. What I want to do is simply make a class that my other workmates can use. But rather than have it in a code form, I want to build it (partially), and then my workmate can add it into their programs (sort of, like the add reference for the .NET stuff).
I want to make a program that can communicate with other programs, Like a tcpserver/client.But i don't know where to start. I want the user to be able to submit several urls to pictures on the internet and for other users to be able to view those pictures. How can I do this?
2. User clicks go next to textbox with data entered, then button and a copy of form refered to as browse is created.
3. Form refered to as browse is directed to the url refered to on the form refered to as monitor, in the associated textbox(passed as a parameter to copyForm)
4. A timer is used to refresh the webpage every 10 seconds
What I wanted to happen was the program turn the associated picturebox in form1 green if page is loaded, and black is loading.
In class i saved my program in with load of other test programs for the same assignment and got everything mixed up i finally figured out what was what and loaded the program in Visual Basic. Now my program doesn't recognize one of my forms when i try to access the design view of it. I hit run for the hell of it and the program runs with errors of course but the form1 "the missing one" shows up with all the buttons etc and i can use it.
I am trying to build a program that monitors how other programs are being used and as part of it I need to figure out if it is possible to work out using VB code what window, program or process the user is currently using or Focused on.
I want to make a process monitor tool with WMI that monitor the processes created or deleted, but the code will not work. Note to reference System.Management,
I'm working on a program, just to learn a bit more about programming. The program's function (if I manage to do it) will be to accept drag/drop files and create a link to them within the program itself. For example: I drag and drop the .exe to a game I have installed; the program then creates a shortcut within itself; the shortcut is displayed in the program with the name/icon; if I click the icon within the program, game launches.I've already manually coded something to this same effect, but it doesn't automatically add new shortcuts/buttons so I have to keep going back in and reprogramming another button every time I install a new game/program. I'd like to be able to just drag/drop and be ready to go. Any ideas on how I can get this function? I'm using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.
does anyone know how to get my program to scan for a program such as ie then add it to a toolstrip as a button then when i click it it opens ie??I like..... Understandable Answers
I want to make a simple window which would contain a list of some free programs available for download. The program list would be derived from a web page that has download links to the programs. My program would check this webpage, and provide the download links so that the user could download the programs in-window.
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..
I'm making a program which should close and block different programs, but also i want i to be a able to close and block different websites. So if i have my browser opened and i'm on www.facebook.com then i want to block the acces for this site.

I'm looking to write a custom program in VB.NET / C++ / C# that would allow me to monitor a system's vitals over a Remote Desktop Connection. I'm only looking for tips on how to implement a connection like this in code (eg. is it just a simple object or call to a WScript function? or is it much more sophisticated?). As to the specifics of operation after making the connection, I have that figured out based on another program which shares some similar features. This doesn't have to go through an RDP connection, I'm definitely looking for better ways. Reason I mention RDP is because I currently do this manually over an RDP connection, but I don't wanna have to constantly open the window.
Is there a way to direct a form in VB.NET to open and maximize in the second monitor. That is if there are two monitors displayed, to have the form load in the second window maximized by default?
Say a program was made with two forms and a computer has two monitors attached.
I want FormA to show in MonitorA by default and FormB to show in MonitorB maximized by default
I want to write a program that can control port communication in a PC by blocking certain port based on the admins request and also monitor incoming and outgoing network traffic. Can i achieve this using vb.net winsock?
I want to know how can I make a program what will work in any type of resolution & monitor. For example if I make an application fullscreen it will work. But problem is that text boxes or another things will not work properly. For example if I make a program & make it fullscreen for 1440 * 900 resolution it will work fine when it will get 1440 * 900 resolution. But when it will get different resolution like 1280 * 1024 or something like that it will make my application fullscreen but buttons or another things will not be present there in same place. So what should I do to get rid of this problem? All I want to make a program what will adjust itself everywhere(though you change resolution or monitor like 17 inch or 29 inch whatever it will work & buttons & another thinks will be there in same place).
i just wanted to make a really simple program to hide/restore programs listed in the taskbar. the hiding part is working, but somehow i cant get the window to show up again ? >< here is the code i am using:

I made a program that clicks in different places. I wanted it to be able to click on other programs, but it doesnt. I know it clicks because when i test it on VS where i am typing changes when the program clicks.
I am wanting to create a simple program that monitors what programs are opening and if necessary close one or two. I would also like to know if it is possible to get the window title (using a simple function/sub) and check with a stored list of programs,
whether that particular program is allowed to be open and if so before the program can be opened a password dialog will appear asking the user to enter the defined password in order to continue opening the program. Is this possible? Also should the password entered not match up, the program/process will not be allowed to open and will be closed/cancelled.
some code or point to the part of the microsoft site that has information on getting window titles and how to close current programs open etc
