madKernel does not find the started process after renaming his file.

How to me to find out the given process?

Can you give me some more details, please? What do you mean with "does not find" exactly? Thanks!

....
RenameFile('c:\windows\notepad.exe', 'c:\windows\fake.dll');
ExecuteFile('c:\windows\fake.dll', '', 'c:\windows', SW_SHOWNORMAL);

Processes.RefreshItems;
if Processes('fake.dll').ItemCount > 0 then ShowMessage('1: Find process (fake.dll)');  // find process

Sleep(500);
RenameFile('c:\windows\fake.dll', 'c:\windows\notepad.exe');

Processes.RefreshItems;
if Processes('fake.dll').ItemCount > 0 then ShowMessage('2: Find process (fake.dll)');  // NOT FIND Process !!!
......

The second message does not appear!

Does it work if you search for "notepad.exe" in step 2.?

After renaming the madKernel finds the first module used by this process (for example ntdll.dll) instead of the fake.dll !!!

Code: Select all

procedure TMainForm.ButtonUpdateClick(Sender: TObject);
var
  i, n: Integer;
begin
  Processes.RefreshItems;
  ProcessesList.ClearRows;
  n := Processes.ItemCount;
  ProcessesList.AddRow(n);
  for i:=0 to n-1 do begin
    ProcessesList.Cell[1,i].AsString := ExtractFileName(Processes.Items[i].ExeFile);
    ProcessesList.Cell[2,i].AsString := ExtractFilePath(Processes.Items[i].ExeFile);
    ProcessesList.Cell[3,i].AsString := GetFileVersionStr(Processes.Items[i].ExeFile);
  end;
end;

1) Start notepad.exe
2) Press ButtonUpdate (madKernel finds the notepad.exe)
3) Rename the notepad.exe into fake.dll
4) Press ButtonUpdate (madKernnel does not find notepad.exe, but finds, for example, ntdll.dll)

Ok, thanks for testing/reporting. I'll have a look at it.

If not it is inconvenient, have left on a mail box of correction (myAC.support{at}gmail.com).
This correction is very necessary!

to madshi:
And how for a long time to me to wait for correction of this bug?
Support of this function is very urgently necessary for me.

You expect a bugfix in 24-48 hours during a weekend?

Are you a commercial customer, btw? That would help increasing priority, of course (my to do list is quite full).

Sorry for the late response. The fix will be uploaded later today. You can download it tomorrow here:
