如何使用WMI获取流程说明？

Question

I'm using WMI query to get a list of all processes, but what i missing is process description! It appears like this when i use "Description" property!

Name : chrome.exe            Description : chrome.exe

but it should be

Name : chrome.exe            Description : Google Chrome

So what's the property name that return process description?

public void GetProcesses()
{ 
     ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("Select * From Win32_Process");
     ManagementObjectCollection processList = searcher.Get();
     foreach (ManagementObject obj in processList)
     {
         Console.WriteLine("Name : {0}     Description : {1}",obj["Name"],obj["Description"]);
     }
}

Answer 1

You have all the properties in the Win32_Process class documentation . Looks like you're out of luck, testing some processes on my machine using wbemtest , I don't see any property that suits you needs. It's possible that processes don't expose such information.

Answer 2

It is not WMI, but will work for processes on your local machine.

You may find a description of a process [sic.], actually it is the description of the executable, using GetVersionInfo . Than check the FileDescription and or ProductName properties .

Note however, that there is no guarantee that this information is available. Nevertheless it is probably your best bet. Other tools, like sysinternals process explorer, display that information as well.
