How do you kill a process for a particular user in .NET (C#)?
Instead of using GetProcessInfoByPID, I just grab the data from StartInfo.EnvironmentVariables.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Text;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Security.Principal;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
namespace KillRDPClip
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Process[] processlist = Process.GetProcesses();
foreach (Process theprocess in processlist)
{
String ProcessUserSID = theprocess.StartInfo.EnvironmentVariables["USERNAME"];
String CurrentUser = Environment.UserName;
if (theprocess.ProcessName.ToLower().ToString() == "rdpclip" && ProcessUserSID == CurrentUser)
{
theprocess.Kill();
}
}
}
}
}
Ok, here's what I ended up doing:
Process[] processlist = Process.GetProcesses();
bool rdpclipFound = false;
foreach (Process theprocess in processlist)
{
String ProcessUserSID = GetProcessInfoByPID(theprocess.Id);
String CurrentUser = WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name.Replace("SERVERNAME\\","");
if (theprocess.ProcessName == "rdpclip" && ProcessUserSID == CurrentUser)
{
theprocess.Kill();
rdpclipFound = true;
}
}
Process.Start("rdpclip");
if (rdpclipFound)
{
MessageBox.Show("rdpclip.exe successfully restarted"); }
else
{
MessageBox.Show("rdpclip was not running under your username. It has been started, please try copying and pasting again.");
}
}
