| Hi all,
|
| We have an Application running on our Windows 2003 Server that we log
| by its Image Name appearing in the task manager when it is runs. (The
| Processes Tab in the Task Manager). The problem we are having is that
| for some unknown reason the Image Name has seemed to of changed to a
| slightly different name then the Application that it is actually
| executing. The Application that we are running is called
| PowaMaster.exe which till afew days ago appeared as PowaMaster.exe
| under the Process Tab. Just lately it has changed its name to
| POWAMA~2.EXE.
|
| So its gone from
|
| PowaMaster.exe to POWAMA~2.exe under the Process Tab???
|
| I checked the name of the EXE Application file that it is executing
| and it is still called PowaMaster. Why has it changed its process name
| and is there a way to change it back to its original Process name
| under the task manager?
|
| The program still seems to execute fine, its just stuffing up our
| logging program.
|
| Any suggestions would greatly be appreciated!!
|
| Powaguy
