Why are you doing System type stuff using Java? It is not designed for it. If you want a command line command to get the "application" list that appears in TaskManager, then why are you asking in a Java forum? Ask in some Windows forum somewhere.


And don't cross-post. You have posted this same non-Java question (with this nominal Java code in the JSP forum as well, where it is even more out of place than it is here).
