I have a WPF application that runs in the system-tray & monitors HTTP activity.
When I right-click my system tray icon, I can launch a “Control Panel” from a context menu command.
However, when a user goes to StartMenu\Programs\MYAPPLICATION and clicks on menu item called “Control Panel” I would like to fire a method that displays the control panel (just a regular WPF Window),
How can I achieve this?
On application launch you could check if there is another instance running. Then via interprocess communication of your choice (e.g. WCF, named pipes, .NET remoting, a drop file, etc) you could instruct the original instance (via whatever means the chosen communication method provides) to show the required window.
