i have some text files from which my app reads and process data, these text files are in hundreds and i am now providing them in a folder, but these should not be accessed by others, how i can do this?
View 1 RepliesIs there a way to store data on a USB file in a way that the OS cannot read it with the standard methods? I was thinking maybe with an uncommon filesystem, but then I 'd probably have to implement the IO myself, which sounds like a huge work.Another idea would be to access the disk sectors in a low level way and store data in an incompatible way? But I do not know where to begin.For the record, I am using VB.NET.
EDIT: Regarding the VALID security concerns you have raised: I agree, but assume that, all I need to do for the scope of my project, is to simply hinder the average and slightly advanced user. NOT the expert.

View 3 RepliesI have written an application in Visual Basic 2010 that I would like to hide from the Task Manager Application Tab, if possible. It's fine if it is listed in the Processes tab.
The purpose of the application is to allow users to postpone a restart following software update installations that require restarts. The application includes a form the user's must interact with so it can't be permanently hidden from view on the desktop. I am basically looking to mimic the WSUS Windows Update dialog which allows users to postpone restarts.
VB6 has app.taskvisible which is no longer included in VB 2010. I have seen a lot of discussion around this topic but no real solutions.

View 2 RepliesI have a legacy application that has an interactive graphical user interface, but also periodically checks for files in a directory and reacts to the files. I want to launch the application from a VB program, but not see the GUI (i.e., just let the file interface do it's thing). I really don't want to see the application running on the desktop at all (e.g., no windows, nothing on taskbar), the only evidence would be if I checked task manager I'd see it running.
Obviously this app would be ideally a service, but that's not where we are and I can't change it so I'm trying to simply not see the GUI.
I've seen the ProcessStartInfo.CreateNoWindow and WindowStyle = hidden flags but they don't hide the GUI of the legacy app.
again launch the legacy app (actually an unmanaged C++/MFC app) from a VB managed admin app.

Is this something that can be done?
