    Get a process handle using OpenProcess with PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION as the desired access (or use a handle previously obtained, possibly from CreateProcess), then try to get its termination status using GetExitCodeProcess. If it returns STILL_ACTIVE, the process has not terminated yet, otherwise it has. Don’t forget to close the handle using CloseHandle
