Exceptions
You are trying to access the MainModule property for a process that's running on a remote computer. This property is available only for processes that are running on the local computer.
A 32-bit process is trying to access the modules of a 64-bit process.
Remarks
A process module represents a .dll or .exe file that's loaded into a particular process. The MainModule property lets you view information about the executable used to start the process, including the module name, file name, and module memory details.
If no main module is found, it could be because the process hasn't finished loading the main module when the property is called.
