Can we check if a running application or a program uses .Net framework to execute itself?
There's a trick I once learned from Scott Hanselman's list of interview questions. You can easily list all programs running .NET in command prompt by using:
tasklist /m "mscor*"
It will list all processes that have mscor*
amongst their loaded modules.
We can apply the same method in code:
public static bool IsDotNetProcess(this Process process)
{
var modules = process.Modules.Cast<ProcessModule>().Where(
m => m.ModuleName.StartsWith("mscor", StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase));
return modules.Any();
}
