    Actually arz searches the preferences.ini file and scans that file to find eMule ports.
    A different approach can be to search for listening ports in Windows, in example this command

    NETSTAT -A
    

    can be useful, but eMule has to be open.

    This should be definitely the best solution, according to the case of commando67 that I faced on IRC this evening: commando67 joined #eMule-Italian, matry's AnalisiRete (a .NET arz equivalent) failed to find useful information, I suggested him to launch arz, the program gave me a fake result because of commando67 unzipped eMule in a folder but he had (or has) another eMule version installed, I spent a lot of time to undestand that I helped him to forward two different ports, when we changed ports all worked as intended, of course.

    Related to issue Missing registry key HKCU\Software\eMule causes ARZ to fail because if arz won't search the preferences.ini then it won't care about the registry key, too.

    NETSTAT/ANO
    

    shows output immediately.

    A : display All connections and listening ports.
    N : display addresses and port numbers in Numerical form.
    O : display the Owning process ID associated with each
        connection.
    

    removing the N option is slower, but probably unavoidable.

    There was a typo in the title of this thread, but SourceForge didn't support the title change in the past. Just now, I discovered it can be changed. Better late than never.
