How do I get the list of open file handles by process id in C#?
I’m interested in digging down and getting the file names as well.
Looking for the programmatic equivalent of what process explorer does.
Most likely this will require interop.
Considering adding a bounty on this, the implementation is nasty complicated.
Ouch this is going to be hard to do from managed code.
There is a sample on codeproject
Most of the stuff can be done in interop, but you need a driver to get the filename cause it lives in the kernel’s address space. Process Explorer embeds the driver in its resources. Getting this all hooked up from C# and supporting 64bit as well as 32, is going to be a major headache.
