Hi,
i'm trying to launch application that works well on Win7, but on Win10 causes an error.

GetProcessesByName with parameter "127.0.0.1| does not work on Win10.

anyone knows why?


static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            try
            {
                Process[] processesByName = Process.GetProcessesByName("vshost32.exe", "127.0.0.1");
                if (processesByName.Length == 0)
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("false");
                }
                else
                {
                    Console.WriteLine("true");
                }
            }
            catch (InvalidOperationException exception)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(exception);
            }

            Console.ReadLine();

        }


error:
DESKTOP-SJPDB4K\Administrator [2020-05-24 18:37:56,286] ERROR - Error checking process status
System.InvalidOperationException: Cannot connect to remote machine. ---> System.InvalidOperationException: Cannot read value from counter performance. ---> System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: Cannot find remote path.

   w System.Diagnostics.NtProcessManager.GetProcessInfos(String machineName, Boolean isRemoteMachine)
   w System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcesses(String machineName)
   w System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName(String processName, String machineName)


What I have tried:

i tried many things like
- changing settings of firewall
- disabling firewall
- add a line "127.0.0.1 localhost" to c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts

nothing helped.

Does Win10 is 32 or 64bit?

System is 64bit, application is 32bits

This might be the reason. Have you tried to compile your programme with different options (32/64bit)?

Why are you using the IP address of your own machine? Use the version of GetProcessesByName that does not require a hostname.
