Examples

' Start the Calculator 
Dim rp As RemoteProcess = device.GetRemoteProcess()
rp.Start("\windows\calc.exe", "")

' List all running processes 
Console.WriteLine("Type the number of the process you want to end" & _
                  vbCr & vbLf)
Dim processes As Collection(Of RemoteProcess) = device.GetRunningProcesses()
Dim i As Integer 
For i = 0 To processes.Count - 1
    Console.WriteLine(i & ")  " & processes(i).FileName & _
                      " [" & processes(i).ToString() & "]")
Next i

' Get user input and end the process 
Dim index As Integer = Convert.ToInt32(Console.ReadLine())
Console.WriteLine("Attempting to stop " & processes(index).FileName)
processes(index).Kill()
If processes(index).HasExited() Then
    Console.WriteLine("Process is no longer running")
End If

// Start the Calculator.

// List all running processes.
Console.WriteLine("Type the number of the process you want to end\r\n");
