How to Get a Process Name and Version?

This is how the automation process can be built:

1. Open Studio and create a new Process.
2. Drag a Sequence container in the Workflow Designer.

• Create the following variables:

Variable Name	Variable Type	Default Value
identifyProcesses	System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection<System.Diagnostics.Process>	-
closeProcess	Boolean	True

Drag an Open Browser activity inside the Sequence container.

• Type the web address in the Url field. For this example, the address is google.com.
  • In the Properties panel, select the check box for the NewSession option. This starts a new session of the selected browser.Drag another Open Browser activity below the first one. This opens a second browser instance.
• Type the web address in the Url field. The used address is the same as before, google.com.
  • In the Properties panel, select the check box for the NewSession option. This starts a new session of the selected browser.
  • Place a Get Processes activity below the Open Browser activity.
• In the Properties panel, add the variable identifyProcesses in the Processes field.
• Drag a For Each activity below the Get Processes activity.
• Add the value process in the For Each field.
  • In the Properties panel, select the System.Diagnostics.Process from the TypeArgument drop-down list.
  • Add the variable identifyProcesses in the Enter a VB expression field.
  • Place an If activity inside the Body of the For Each activity.
• Add the expression process.ToString.Contains("explore") in the Condition field.
• Drag a Write Line activity inside the Then field of the If activity.
• Add the value process.ToString in the Text field.
• Place another If activity below the previously added If activity.
• Add the expression process.ToString.Contains("iexplore") And closeProcess in the Condition field.
• Drag a Message Box activity inside the Then field of the If activity.
• Add the expression "An IE process will be killed" in the Text field.
• Select the check box for the TopMost option for always having the message displayed in the foreground.
• Place a Kill Process activity below the Message Box activity.
• In the Properties panel, add the value process in the Process field.
• Drag an Assign activity below the Kill Process activity.
• In the Properties panel, add the variable closeProcess in the To field.
• Add the value False in the Value field.
• Here is how the For Each process should look:


Place a Message Box activity below the For Each activity.

• In the Properties field, add the expression "All the IE processes will be killed" in the Text field.
• Select the check box for the TopMost option for always having the message displayed in the foreground.
• Add a Kill Process activity below the Message Box activity. This activity closes all the open web browsers.
