I would like to make the filemanager name show something like "MyApplication
Instance1", Is this possible?
No


Right now if one process starts acting funny,
its impossible to tell what instance is a problem (Because they all look the
same in Task Manager).

They should all have a unique process ID (PID), just make sure you
show that column in Task Manager and it should be a lot easier to tell
them apart. You can compare it to the Process.Id property.

I have several instances (Around 20) of a .Net application running on a
server. In task manager they all show as something like
"MyApplication.exe".

I would like to make the filemanager name show something like "MyApplication
Instance1", Is this possible? Right now if one process starts acting funny,
its impossible to tell what instance is a problem (Because they all look the
same in Task Manager).

I tried using the "ProcessName" method, and its "ReadOnly":
Process.GetProcessesByName("MyApplication")(0).ProcessName =
"MyApplication Instance1"

Any ideas?
