Examples

The following example uses an instance of the Process class to start a process.

#using <System.dll>
using namespace System;
using namespace System::Diagnostics;
using namespace System::ComponentModel;

int main()

        // You can start any process, HelloWorld is a do-nothing example.
        myProcess->StartInfo->FileName = "C:\\HelloWorld.exe";
        myProcess->StartInfo->CreateNoWindow = true;
        myProcess->Start();
        // This code assumes the process you are starting will terminate itself. 
        // Given that it is started without a window so you cannot terminate it 
        // on the desktop, it must terminate itself or you can do it programmatically
        // from this application using the Kill method.

The following F# example defines a runProc function that starts a process, captures all output and error information, and records the number of milliseconds that the process has run. The runProc function has three parameters: the name of application to launch, the arguments to supply to the application, and the starting directory.

Remarks

A Process component provides access to a process that is running on a computer. A process, in the simplest terms, is a running app. A thread is the basic unit to which the operating system allocates processor time. A thread can execute any part of the code of the process, including parts currently being executed by another thread.

The Process component is a useful tool for starting, stopping, controlling, and monitoring apps. You can use the Process component, to obtain a list of the processes that are running, or you can start a new process. A Process component is used to access system processes. After a Process component has been initialized, it can be used to obtain information about the running process. Such information includes the set of threads, the loaded modules (.dll and .exe files), and performance information such as the amount of memory the process is using.

This type implements the IDisposable interface. When you have finished using the type, you should dispose of it either directly or indirectly. To dispose of the type directly, call its Dispose method in a try/finally block. To dispose of it indirectly, use a language construct such as using (in C#) or Using (in Visual Basic). For more information, see the "Using an Object that Implements IDisposable" section in the IDisposable interface documentation.

Important

Calling methods from this class with untrusted data is a security risk. Call the methods from this class only with trusted data. For more information, see Validate All Inputs.

Note

32-bit processes cannot access the modules of a 64-bit process. If you try to get information about a 64-bit process from a 32-bit process, you will get a Win32Exception exception. A 64-bit process, on the other hand, can access the modules of a 32-bit process.

The process component obtains information about a group of properties all at once. After the Process component has obtained information about one member of any group, it will cache the values for the other properties in that group and not obtain new information about the other members of the group until you call the Refresh method. Therefore, a property value is not guaranteed to be any newer than the last call to the Refresh method. The group breakdowns are operating-system dependent.

If you have a path variable declared in your system using quotes, you must fully qualify that path when starting any process found in that location. Otherwise, the system will not find the path. For example, if c:\mypath is not in your path, and you add it using quotation marks: path = %path%;"c:\mypath", you must fully qualify any process in c:\mypath when starting it.

A system process is uniquely identified on the system by its process identifier. Like many Windows resources, a process is also identified by its handle, which might not be unique on the computer. A handle is the generic term for an identifier of a resource. The operating system persists the process handle, which is accessed through the Handle property of the Process component, even when the process has exited. Thus, you can get the process's administrative information, such as the ExitCode (usually either zero for success or a nonzero error code) and the ExitTime. Handles are an extremely valuable resource, so leaking handles is more virulent than leaking memory.

Note

This class contains a link demand and an inheritance demand at the class level that applies to all members. A SecurityException is thrown when either the immediate caller or the derived class does not have full-trust permission. For details about security demands, see Link Demands.

.NET Core Notes

In .NET Framework, the Process class by default uses Console encodings, which are typically code page encodings, for the input, output, and error streams. For example code, on systems whose culture is English (United States), code page 437 is the default encoding for the Console class. However, .NET Core may make only a limited subset of these encodings available. If this is the case, it uses Encoding.UTF8 as the default encoding.

If a Process object depends on specific code page encodings, you can still make them available by doing the following before you call any Process methods:

  1. Retrieve the EncodingProvider object from the CodePagesEncodingProvider.Instance property.

  2. Pass the EncodingProvider object to the Encoding.RegisterProvider method to make the additional encodings supported by the encoding provider available.

The Process class will then automatically use the default system encoding rather than UTF8, provided that you have registered the encoding provider before calling any Process methods.

Start(String, String, String, SecureString, String)

Starts a process resource by specifying the name of an application, a set of command-line arguments, a user name, a password, and a domain and associates the resource with a new Process component.

Start(String, String)

Starts a process resource by specifying the name of an application and a set of command-line arguments, and associates the resource with a new Process component.

Start(String)

Starts a process resource by specifying the name of a document or application file and associates the resource with a new Process component.

ToString()

Formats the process's name as a string, combined with the parent component type, if applicable.

ToString()

Returns a string that represents the current object.

(Inherited from Object)
WaitForExit()

Instructs the Process component to wait indefinitely for the associated process to exit.

WaitForExit(Int32)

Instructs the Process component to wait the specified number of milliseconds for the associated process to exit.

WaitForExit(TimeSpan)

Instructs the Process component to wait the specified amount of time for the associated process to exit.

WaitForExitAsync(CancellationToken)

Instructs the process component to wait for the associated process to exit, or for the cancellationToken to be cancelled.

WaitForInputIdle()

Causes the Process component to wait indefinitely for the associated process to enter an idle state. This overload applies only to processes with a user interface and, therefore, a message loop.

WaitForInputIdle(Int32)

Causes the Process component to wait the specified number of milliseconds for the associated process to enter an idle state. This overload applies only to processes with a user interface and, therefore, a message loop.

WaitForInputIdle(TimeSpan)

Causes the Process component to wait the specified timeout for the associated process to enter an idle state. This overload applies only to processes with a user interface and, therefore, a message loop.

Events

Disposed

Occurs when the component is disposed by a call to the Dispose() method.

(Inherited from Component)
ErrorDataReceived

Occurs when an application writes to its redirected StandardError stream.

Exited

Occurs when a process exits.

OutputDataReceived

Occurs each time an application writes a line to its redirected StandardOutput stream.
