[2.0] Process owner

[francisstokes]

I've been using the Process class to get information about different processes, but I can't get the process owner. I've looked on MSDN about processes but i couldn't find anything. Is there a way to do this through API?

Sorry if this question has been asked before.

I think it'sProcess1.StartInfo.UserName;

Thanks for reply, but i had no luck with that. Anyone else?

I don't have .Net 2.0 on this machine, but my method should still work. You will need to add a reference to System.Management to your project:

StringBuilder objSB = new StringBuilder();

string[] s= new string[2];

//Use WMI to get the process info
ManagementClass objMan = new ManagementClass ( @"root\cimv2:Win32_Process") ;

//Loop through each process
foreach ( ManagementObject objManOb in objMan.GetInstances() )
{
//Call the get owner method, which gets us the username and domain of the user that started the process
objManOb.InvokeMethod("GetOwner",(object[])s);

objSB.Append (objManOb["Name"] + " - " + s[1] + "\\" + s[0] + Environment.NewLine );
}

MessageBox.Show(objSB.ToString());

Im looking at that and thinking it should work, and when i tested that code, it did. But i need to get the owner of individual processes. So i tried to modify it a little, but no luck. Heres the code ive used:



private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

try
{
textbox1.Text = GetOwner(listBox1.SelectedItem);

}
catch { MessageBox.Show("Error. No Process Selected?"); }
}

string GetOwner(string ProcessName)
{
StringBuilder objSB = new StringBuilder();

string[] s = new string[2];

//Use WMI to get the process info
ManagementClass objMan = new ManagementClass(@"root\cimv2:Win32_Process");

//Loop through each process and check name against WMI name
foreach (ManagementObject objManOb in objMan.GetInstances())
{

objManOb.InvokeMethod("GetOwner", (object[])s);

if (objManOb["Name"].ToString() == ProcessName)
{
objSB.Append(s[0]);
}
}

return objSB.ToString();
}



Its not returning errors, just nothing is showing up in the textbox. help?
