I have a requirement to hide a process in Task Manager. It is for Intranet scenario. So, everything is legitimate. :) Please feel free to share any code you have (preferably in C#) or any other techniques or any issues in going with this route. Update1: Most of the users have admin privileges in order to run some legacy apps. So, one ...
I need to a script that will pull up the Task Manager in Vista but with processes from all users (like when you click "Show processes from all users"). I don't mind the UAC interruption but I'd like to save some time and go straight to the "all users" version. I don't care what language per se, just something that'll run it native to V...
In my Windows XP Task Manager, some processes display a higher value in the Mem Usage column than the VMSize. My Firefox instance, for example shows 111544 K as mem usage and 100576 K as VMSize. According to the help file of Task Manager Mem Usage is the working set of the process and VMSize is the committed memory in the Virtual addre...
Hi all, How to use batch file to check if an application still running or not? If the application still running, this process will loop again and again. Else, there will be error message. Thank you very much ...
I'm looking for a app that does about the same thing at the Performance tab on Task Manager but on a per-process bases and with more plotted valuse. At a minimum I would like to be able to plot CPU and memory usage but it would be nice if it could plot: Network usage File system IO (per drive/share sub headings would be nice) Open file...
Not sure if this is the appropriate place for this question, but it seems related to threading and system resources and all that. Why Does my Task Manager show that the System Idle Process is using 90%+ of the CPU power when I have 3 different processes going!?!? Is it because of I/O bottlenecks? For example, if I do an SVN checkout, ...
I have a long-running memory hog of an experimental program, and I'd like to know it's actual memory footprint. The Task Manager says (in windows7-64) that the app is consuming 800 mb of memory, but the total amount of memory allocated, also according to the task manager, is 3.7gb. The sum of all the allocated memory does not equal 3.7...
My coworkers and I are trying to track a memory issue in an application, and in my research I found a blog entry that talks about how each thread gets a 1MB stack by default. Our application happens to create a lot of threads, and so we wrote a quick test program to make sure we understood exactly what was happening. The test app (C#) ...
Is there a way using SWT to get a list of all processes currently running (similar to executing tasklist.exe/tlist.exe on Windows)? If so, is there sample code available? Ideally this would be done programmatically only (no third party tools). My app monitors the process list and needs to support Windows 2000/Server 2003/XP Home/XP Pr...
I have a WinForms application written in C# for .NET 3.5 that needs to show a specific name in the Task Manager's Applications tab. However, I need for this text to be different from the Form's text. The behavior I've seen so far is that the Task Manager Applications tab will show the value of the Text property of the System.Windows.Fo...

Hi, I am creating a new Desktop in Windows XP/Vista and 7 using win32 API. This is more like having a secure Desktop and I don't want let any other application to be executed in that Desktop. Well, in Windows XP if I press strg+shift+Esc or strg+alt+ent, in the Desktop which I created, I don't see the task manger on my Desktop but inst...
Hi, I created a dummy windows service using .net 3.5. The service has been compiled for x86 explicitly (32BIT corflag is set). Process Explorer from SysInternals correctly identifies the process as a 32-bit process. However, task manager does not append the "*32" to the process name. Why is that? Cheers, Alex ...
When I run a test harness through the Visual Studio 2005 debugger, it creates a console window every time I run it. In the past, the console window would close automatically when the test harness process terminated, but now I'm finding that the console window is hanging around afterwards. After the test harness terminates: I cannot c...
I'm using the Windows API (SetWindowsHookEx) to capture keyboard events. I would like to pass the Ctrl+Shift+Esc combination to my application for processing but suppress Task Manager appearing. Unfortunately, it looks like the three key combination never gets as far as my Keyboard Hook routine; I only ever get two keys. I don't want ...
I have a C++ Application, when I observe Task Manger, it shows that applicaiton's memory usage increases gradually. I manually check my source code, and I used Visual Leak Detector for Visual C++ to find memory leak, but I couldn't find any. Is it 100% that there is a memory leak, and I couldn't find it or is there any possibility that ...
Hi guys, I have question regarding the CreateWindowEx function. I have 2 windows, a main one and a popup one. I want a popup window to hide everywhere. It is currently not displayed in taskbar and it is not even visible in alt+tab menu. However it is visible on "Applications" tab in task manager. What flags do I need to use in CreateWin...
