Hi, I want to build similar experience as google desktop search is giving while opening the file. Suppose the user is searching for a particular file and he clicks on it in the browser, google desktop is opening it in foreground, i tried to do this in my app but it some times opens in background.
I used ShellExecuteEx and then AllowSetForegroundWindow using the process handle returned. I know there are situations where processhandle will return NULL, but in my case even if I got valid process handle, AllowSetForegroundWindow returned with Access Denied error.
I think here the issue is my application is running as a service and the foreground application is the browser.
Can anyone help me here? i want to give the same experience as google desktop while clicking the file.
Thanks in advance.
