Where is this c# console application running from??
-
Our client has a windows 2003 server, which contains a c# console application, which is currently executing once a week, and I need to stop this application from running. The problem is, I don't know where the original developers of this app, scheduled it to run from. Our client severed ties with their prior development company, so we just inherited their work from this yesterday. I've been able to locate the directory where the c# console application is located, but I can't figure out where on this windows server 2003 box, this application is running from. I've checked scheduled tasks as well as windows services, but haven't found any trace of the executable. Any possible suggestions as to where else someone may schedule a c# console application to run on a windows server 2003 box? Thanks.

Also it could be another service or scheduled task that runs the console app. Why not try and delete it. That'll stop it :)

Renaming it might be safer. It's likely that an error message will result at some point, possibly narrowing the search for a starting service. If it turns out that the program is necessary for something, the old name can be easily restored.

I think process explorer or at least one of the other sysinternals utilities (now owned by MS) allows you to track down process owners. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653[^]
It might not help him because it runs once a week and exits after running.
