Hi,

I need to restart processes which are already running.

I think the only way to do this is stopping them and executing them again with the same arguments they where launched first.

So I need to know if windows registers anywhere the arguments used to execute processes.

żIs there any other way to restart a process?

Thank you

Command prompt-->net stop service name
net start service name

...

Hi

Thank you for your answer, but I need to restart normal processes, not services.

Windows stores command arguments somewhere in memory. Process Explorer from www.sysinternals.com can show them.

Ok, but you could create your "process" as a service...

OK,

But that is not what I need either, because I want to restart any process, not just my process. In fact my program shows a list of running processes and the user may request restarting any of them, probably some launched before my program.

I know it is possible in Windows XP through WMI but I cannot design it only for this OS.

Maybe it is not possible...

Thank you anyway for your ideas.
