Finding Full Path to Process EXE

[misceverything]

Hello,

I would like to write a script that would enumerate all running
processes and return the full path to the EXE of each running
process. However, I can't seem to find any good info on how to do
this..any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have this strange feeling of deja vu. Try this:

(You want the .ExecutablePath or .CommandLine attributes I imagine)

Use Tim Golden's WMI wrapper.
Searching for "python enumerate running processes" with Google returns a
reference to his module on the *first* hit. Searching in this newsgroup
only, returns tons of references.

Thanks, Tim! I was able to find plenty out there about enumerating
processes, but the .ExecutablePath was exactly what I needed.

That's not a problem - I'm only interested in Win2k+. Thanks for the
caveat.

On a similar note, is there a way (preferably using WMI) to get the
full path to the executable that has a port open (the same thing that
fport does, just implemented in Python)?

It looks as though it might be possible with the (not
installed by default) SNMP WMI provider. Haven't tried
it myself, but there's some info here:

and here:

Alternatively, look around for the GetExtendedTcpTable functionality
and so on.

Sorry, this isn't really my area -- all I've done here is to let
my fingers do the walking.

Sounds good - I'm going to check those links out now. Thanks again
for all your help.
