How can i check if app1.exe is running ?

[Spryz]

i want my application app2.exe to see if app1.exe is running, if it is, it should close app2.exe

How can i do this?

I use MMF2Dev and have all extensions posted in the forums here at clickteam

Thanks

Try the Process Viewer object.

if u made both apps use the shared data object.

I didnt make both apps, i just made app2.exe

Try the Process Viewer object.

Do you have an example i could use to check if a single app is running ?

Thank You Sphax, i did a search but came up with no results.

Also i wish to check for the same app, so if app2.exe is already running, it will not let the user load app2.exe again it would just give a warning.

if app2 is made with MMF2, you can use share value object or wait for instance communicator object.

Actually i wanted to check if samp.exe was running, Grand Theft Auto San Andreas Multiplayer, if it was i wanted to application to minizmize, also i wanted to make sure the application scouldnt be open 2 times as it would mess up the data in the single ini file it uses
