WMI How to convert the query information into a handle

Question

Is there any way to convert the information found through the WM query into a handle?

I've got three monitors, one of which I've disconnected through Windows settings

Through the C ා code,

 managementobjectsearcher disp = new managementobjectsearcher (@ "root / WMI", "select * from wmimonitorid");

foreach (ManagementObject mo in disp.Get ())

{

}

Three displays are available

The output information is as follows:

Active: True

Ins tanceName:DISPLAY \AOC2252\4&1ef5b1b7&0&UID206355_0

Is there any way to convert the information obtained into the handle of the display

Answer 1

Hello @Afon.zhang ,

A handle, is simply a number that Windows uses for internal reference to an object. You can obtain a handle from system but not convert some information to a handle.

For a disconnected monitor, there is no valid handle to it as I pointed out in another your question.

Refer to "Handles and Objects".

Thank you!
