Start Process on Another Desktop #30
Description
At the moment, our app using this library runs as a system service.
As such, any processes started end up running in the services virtual desktop, so aren't visible to the user & they can't interact with them.
To get around this, we currently have to use a combination of PowerShell & psexec:-
- First to query the virtual desktop ID of the current user (PowerShell)
- Secondly, to start the process in the context of that virtual desktop, so it is visible (psexec)
It would be great to implement this natively, so we can just specify it as an option when starting a process.
There's an example of it in C++ at https://github.com/poweradminllc/PAExec , although I haven't tried the application out to be able to say if it works or not.
