See The Program Running In The Task Manager After Closing The Program?
Oct 10, 2011
have you of any ideas in why does my software in vb 2010 still exist in the task manager (process tab), after i closed the program? i noticed it when i want to delete the .exe file.
I am making a security program in visual basic 2008, and am wondering is there anyway i can stop the program appearing in the applications tab in task manager. Theres the option to close the program via the taskbar with a password, I just don't want anyone to be able to just end it from task manager. I know you can stop it somehow cause other programs manage to but how?
This works for XP, VB.NET 2003/2005/2008. This example does not work on Windows Vista. Add a ListView, and Timer to a form. {Timer must have the Elapsed Event}
Code: Public Class Form1 Const WM_COMMAND As Int32 = &H111 Const MF_ENABLED As Int32 = &H0 Const MF_GRAYED As Int32 = &H1 Const LVM_FIRST As Int32 = &H1000 [Code] .....
I create a form and set the border style to FixedSingle , this form dosen't have (control box) and when i want to unload this form i should press ALT+CRLT+DEl and cancel it form process tab ( not Applications tab) how can i set my program in application tab in task manager?(show in taskbar is true)
I tried to build my project but it failed and said the exe was already in use by another process. So I looked in the Task Manager and saw several instances of this exe and several instances of another exe that I wrote. Why wouldn't the processes be stopped after I close the programs I wrote. Is there something I can do so that the processes end after I close the program?
Is it possible to code a program so that the name displayed in the Task Manager can be changed mid-process?I have searched for it but everything I found was either someone wanting to hide the name or was for VB6.I am developing a program that will be run in a dozen instances at the same time. There will be two (2) user input forms followed by a processing form containing nothing but a third-party component that we are forced to use to capture our data. What I am trying to do is change the name after the user input to indicate which instance this particular program is. That way, if the third-party component hangs, we will know which instance to kill.
I have an application that's using NotifyIcon control. Everything is fine except when I exit the application by the Task Manager, the icon is still in the "system tray" area. I want it to disappear once I exit the application by the Task Manager. [code]...
i created a windows blocker to prevent users access, and only give access to the computer for a certain time if they pay....In the block state taskmgr can not be accessed also no other method can close the blocker. but once the computer is unblocked for use it become vulnerable only to the taskmgr since i have to give access to the taskmgr when the program is not blocking access. Is there anyway to prevent my program from being KILLed in the taskmgr or is there a way to restart the blocker if the user KILLs the program?
I have created an application in VB2010 and deployed it such a way that it will start automatically when a user logins.I want user to restrict closing the application, so i disabled the close button also in the forms.But still users are able to close the application from Task Manager. Is there any option to restrict application closing even from task manager...?
Need help removing a copy of my program shown on the Task Manager after I close.
I must kill a conflicting program that cannot share the COM port and then reinstate when myprogram ends. To reinstate I use: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(conflictingPath & conflictingProgram)
In the last line of my Form1.Closed I try to end all with:System.Windows.Forms.Application.Exit()
Not working - each time I run this program it does kill the conflicting program, can do its dialing function and upon closing reinstates the conflicting program. But each time another copy shows under Task Manager.
How would I Make a program that would detect running process in the taskmanger: Info on my program +Like I want it to load the process name's in a Rich textbox or label or textbox (if that's possible XD). + And I will Have a Button that once I see all the process and then the button1 will kill the processes I Pick.
I'm lending a copy of my .exe on a memory stick and because I dont completely trust them, , I would like to build in a function that as soon as my app has finished doing what its doing And the big red X is hit it will delete itself, but my problem is that i cant put the deletetion in the form closing because the prog is still running, so what should I do? Is there a way that I can get the app to close as soon as the dedicated task is complete, It will remove itself from the memory stick but if the X is hit before the process is complete the then the prog will remain.
Dim frm As Form For Each frm In Forms Set frm = Nothing Next frm
The above code is what I used in VB6 to close all forms associated with my programs before my program closed. I have been searching for information on how to make sure all forms are closed when closing a VB2008 program.
I have seen info on using the Project Property Shutdown mode When startup form closes and I currently have this set.
Is this all that is really necessary? Will the garbage disposal close everything else to free up RAM?
Also, if I have several forms open and want to close all from the main form without closing each one individually, what is the best approach? Is there a collection like in VB6, go through the collection, compare it to the name of the main form and close it if it is not the main form?
I wrote this VB program to be able to throw a device we developed into programming mode where we use an ATMEL Flip installer to upload new firmware. I can program one device after another running the application off of Visual Studio Express 2010 or Visual Studio 2010, but when I go to publish this file and run it on another machine, it becomes unstable and crashes after each upload. On those same computers if I run the raw unpackaged program under Visual Studio Express, the system does not crash, and I can program devices repeatedly.
I want to create a program that will run every start of computer and will check if it is 9:00 AM and can only be seen at the bottom right cornner besides the clock. When the program executes must show an notification that the program is running.
I am currently creating a task manager. But there is a problem : After killing the processes, it still remains in my list box (list of processes).I don't want to use a timer to clear the list and add the list of processes again because this will cause the list to blink.[code]
How do I make my app have a description in the Processes tab of the Task Manager? Changing the assembly description doesn't do it apparently. Right now the description is just it's name.
