Run Outside Program Myprocess?
Nov 16, 2011i'm updating a VS 2003 program to VS2005. I used myprocess to run an old fortran exe program by running a .bat file. the batch points to the .exe file has the input file and output file as arguments. i have no problem till this point. the new program runs the .exe and saves the output file in the same folder as the input file.the problem i have in VS2005 is that while the .exe runs it produces some binary files which used to appear in the folder where the input file was located. so i simply pointed to that folder and copied the files i needed. however, in VS 2005 the files don't seem to be located where the input file folder is located, so i can't copied the files i need.if i just go directly to the batch file and double click and run the batch file it runs and shows all the files in the same folder. how can i solve this problem?

View 10 RepliesClose Another Exe Without Process.Kill() ?
Mar 11, 2012I've been doing some research on controlling another exe without Process.Kill() .
The reason why is that I want to have a main controller program that starts and terminates my other exes . I can't use Process.Kill() it just kills my exe without giving it a chance to save data or handle the form closing event . I want to separate my program to multiple exes to prevent a scenario which is if one of the exe hangs , all the other exe hangs .
When the termination event or signal is received , then the exe would do a rollback or handle the closing part to prevent data loss etc .
So far , I've only found some methods of doing that .
1) using TxT files to communicate between exes.
2) Inter-Process Communication (IPC) using name pipes .
Don't Let Console To Kill Process
May 28, 2009I am developing a large, multi-windowed application. It creates a console using AllocConsole and uses it to dump various information useful for diagnosing and debugging situations with the hardware. The program drives sensitive scientific equipment, and CANNOT be allowed to quit abruptly in midstream. Unfortunately, clicking the close box on the console window does exactly that.
1. Suppress or disable the close box on the console window
2. Trap that event, or
3. Adjust something so that my process does not depend upon its console for its life?

Kill All Non Essential Processes?
Oct 14, 2010I made an application that helps facilitate malware removal by running a bunch of different CLI scanners at once; among other things.
The app was made to run in normal and safe mode. The problem, is that since it has been made to run in normal mode, it essentially becomes useless if the malware has installed a rootkit that kills executables as they open or if they've messed with the exe file association in the registry.
So, to get my app to run, I thought to do 2 things.
First, change the file association of my app to either .com, scr, or .pif so that it can still launch but won't be affected by messed up reg keys or identified by the rootkit.
But, I still need to worry about that rootkit for the other apps.
So I thought to just kill all non essential processes.
What would be the best way to accomplish this?
I thought of two different ways:
I could either have a pre-compiled list of system processes that need to stay running or when looping through the processes, I can identify each by a specific property, like company name or something else.

Kill Explorer Without It Respawning?
Mar 11, 2010So there only only two threads on the forum regarding killing explorer.exe, and neither one answers the question.Does anyone know how to kill explorer.exe (yes the Windows shell) and keep it from re-spawning? It is obviously possible, since taskkill does it. And for the moment I am using taskkill to accomplish this. But it sure would be nice to have a coded solution.
And yes I know what will be disabled when I kill explorer.exe, and yes this is exactly what we (the company at which I am employed) want to happen so please don't just tell me this is a BAD IDEA, like all the other forums on the internet have done to the people who have asked this.I have tried using the approach of looping through the array returned from Process.GetProcessesByName("explorer"), then killing each one of those returned processes. I have tried this in C++ with the native API... just in case there was some difference in the way the .NET libraries called things... In both cases explorer exits for a few seconds, then comes right back. The behaviour I would like to duplicate is that of "taskkill /f /im explorer.exe"
Kill Older Process With Same Name?
May 27, 2009I'm using the following code to kill a program: Dim pProcess() As Process = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("myprogram.exe")
For Each p As Process In pProcess p.Kill() Next
At one point it's running twice and the above code kills em all including the one currently running, resulting in an access error. Is there any way to say, kill the older myprogram.exe only. Compare both of them and see which one was executed first and terminate this one, keeping the later one running.
