That's called networking. Refer Connecting applications over network[^].

You can not ping any application.It is server that responds PING requests.If you know server address either in domain name form or in IP form you can ping it using web application or window application.

here is sample code,

C#

private void getvalue(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
        {
            try
            {
                this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
                DataGridViewRow row = dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex];
                pingip = dataGridView1.Rows[e.RowIndex].Cells[5].Value.ToString();
                Ping ping = new Ping();
                PingReply pingReply = ping.Send(pingip);
                if(pingReply.Status==IPStatus.Success)
               {
                   
                label1.Text = pingReply.Address.ToString();
                label2.Text = pingReply.RoundtripTime.ToString();
                label3.Text = pingReply.Status.ToString();
                row.DefaultCellStyle.BackColor = Color.Green;
               }
                else
                {
                    //this.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor;
                    label1.Text = "Request Time Out";
                    label2.Text = pingReply.RoundtripTime.ToString();
                    label3.Text = pingReply.Status.ToString();
                }
                this.Cursor = Cursors.Default;
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
            }
        }
