    Hello! I think it's a simple question, but i don't know where to start looking for the answer... I have a program which launches several processes. But, i don't want the program to launch a process if the application (the one the process is supposed to launch) is already running. My problem is checking whether the process must be launched or not. I thought searching the Task Manager, but i have no idea on how to get there. Thanks a lot!:-D

      string processName = "MyProcess1";

      Process[] processes = Process.GetProcessesByName(processName);
      if(processes.Length > 0)
      {
      // do nothing, process already running...
      }
      else
      {
      Process.Start(@"c:\MyProcess1.exe");
      }
