Hi, All
How to toggle between two .exe?
Main.exe is launching Child.exe with CreateProcess() API,
I need to run constantly both Apps and toggle between them.
TaskBar is disabled, the Main.exe is running full screen,

Please, any ideas
Thank you

If you know the window titles of the two apps, you can P/Invoke FindWindow
to get the hwnd for the main window of the other app, and then P/Invoke
windows APIs such as SetForegroundWindow()
