Check for another application running in Windows

[Neil Robbins]

I'd like to know how to check whether another application is running in
Windows on the same computer from my application so I can perform an action
if it is. Could anyone suggest where helpful material might be found, or
suggest some code?

All help appreciated

A specific other application? Have a look at the
'System.Diagnostics.Process' class.

Did you ever told that you can translate it as

Sir Peace

(Herr Frieden)
Now I do so you do not have to do it anymore.

Maybe they remember it than.

It is not to believe, when I type Herfried on Google I get your page as
first.
