This DLL checks if your program is already running and controls what has to be done if this is the case.

What is new is that it not only checks if the processnames are the same, but also checks if the sha512 hashes are the same. If the names are the same but the hashes are not, apparently there is another program with the same name, but now, it will no longer stop your program from running, while still not opening multiple instances!

This DLL is written in vb.NET.

Features

  • Check if there is another instance of your program already running
  • Not only using the name, but also using the sha512 hash. No more programs blocking yours because thay have the same name!
  • Helps you to only hide your program when the cross is clicked. The program will pop back up if the user tries to start it again! (Optional, you can just ignore the events and it doesn't happen)
  • If the program really has to quit, you just call one extra function and the program will quit normally again (or, at least, NOTDLL will not stop it anymore)!
