• Software Development for Windows Vista How to start process in session before user logs on?

  I have a need to start a process in a session before the user logons on. On XP I used a Windows Logon Notification Package to do this. When a new session was created, Winlogon.exe in that new session called my WLNP and it was able to start the process before the user logged on. The process is used to support smart card logons for that session. I'm trying to find out how to do something similar on Vista. I know logon notification packages are no longer supported. I know how to write a service to get session creation notification, but I don't know how to start a process in the new session before the user logs on. Is there a function I can use to start a process in another session If so, I could have my session tracking sevice start th ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Microsoft Security Center Registry-Related Operations

  Hello All I don't know whether my question is related to this forum or not. Sorry, if it isn't. As I know, Microsoft Security Center, uses two different methods to report the status of Anti-Virus and Firewall programs: 1) Through WMI (Which requires that the program's manufacturer provides a WMI provider.) 2) Through the Registry (In the case that there is no WMI provider.) My question is about the latter case. How does Security Center get information about the Anti-Virus program when there is no WMI provider Where, in the Registry, does it check What entries are checked Is(are) there specific entry(ies) which all the Anti-Virus programs use Best Regards ...Show All

  Document review workflow with one to many reviewers. Each reviewer can approve, reject, skip, submit comments, etc. (i.e. several possible events). I am looking for recommendations on how best to implement this facet of the state machine. One idea would be to have a starting workflow (sequential or state machine) with a replicator that is driven on the list of users. Then for each repitition, start a state machine for each of the users to do their part. Matt ...Show All
