Fainth Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Hey, i know this can be done in liux by a cmdline, but is there any way to determine the workingdir of a process, by PID or something? I need to find the source of a process that may or may not exist. Problem the Process is named all the same but could be startet from different directories. My current solution is to check all possible sources for a lock.txt which is written when the process is startet. But there might be a more 'nice' method of checking this out.

Ascend4nt Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Check out my Process Functions UDFs (in my signature) for a way to get the Current directory using API calls. There's probably also a way to do with WMI calls.
