Cyri 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2011 Does anyone know of a good way to detect when a specific MMC console is running or not? They all run under mmc.exe which makes that task more difficult. Process Explorer shows me that mmc.exe was run with the following command line "C:\Windows\system32\mmc.exe" "C:\Windows\system32\dsa.msc". I did run across the _ProcessProperties() UDF which looks like it can get me the command line of mmc.exe. My question then is whether that's the best way to do it or not?
