Thread: How to hide multiple windows with the same name ???

Hello , I have a small problem for you experts

When I start 3,4 ... etc ... Half Life dedicated servers that are called the same name "Console" I want that my program to hide them all from taskbar , but my program actualy hide only one window (the first opened)

Ver 1:

Code:

#define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0500

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>

using namespace std;

void show();
void hide();


int main()
{
    int optiune;
    
    SetConsoleTitle("Ascunde redirecte");

    do
    {
     cin>>optiune;
     switch(optiune)
     {
      case 1:
           show();
           break;
      case 2:
           hide();
           hide();
           break;
     }
    }while(optiune!=0);
    
    show();
    
    return 0;
}

void show()
{
    HWND hWnd = FindWindow(0,"Console");
    
    if(hWnd!=0)
    {
               ShowWindow(hWnd,SW_SHOW);      
    }
}

void hide()
{
    HWND hWnd = FindWindow(NULL,"Console"); 
    
    if(hWnd!=0)
    {  
              ShowWindow(hWnd,SW_HIDE);           
    }
}

Ver2:

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>

using namespace std;

int main()
{    
    HWND WindowHandel = FindWindow(0, "Console");
    
    DWORD proccesID = 0;
    GetWindowThreadProcessId(WindowHandel, &proccesID);

    cout <<proccesID<<endl;
    system("pause");
}

Can anyone give me the solution for this ? I don`t care what function you will use ...

I know that this is simple for you guys

3. We will not give you a solution. We may help you find one for yourself. If it was simple, you could do it yourself.

HACKING ???????? )))) man , I want to open 20 servers and hide them because I don`t want to see them on the taskbar , what hacking ? this is a good one ))

Be that as it may, I think the Half Life dedicated servers are used for Steam and its older games and stuff, right?

10x Elkvis , I have made it.

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>

using namespace std;

BOOL CALLBACK EnumWindowsProc(HWND hWnd,LPARAM lParam)
{
     DWORD dwThreadId, dwProcessId;
     HINSTANCE hInstance;
     char window_name[255];
     HANDLE hProcess;
     
     if(!hWnd)
     {
      return true; // nu e window
     }
     //if(!::IsWindowVisible(hWnd))
     //{
      //return true; // nu e vizibila fereastra
     //}
     if(!SendMessage(hWnd,WM_GETTEXT,sizeof(window_name),(LPARAM)window_name))
     {
      return true; // nu are titlu fereastra
     }
     
     hInstance = (HINSTANCE)GetWindowLong(hWnd,GWL_HINSTANCE);
     dwThreadId = GetWindowThreadProcessId(hWnd,&dwProcessId);
     hProcess = OpenProcess(PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS,FALSE,dwProcessId);
     
     if(strcmp(window_name,"Console")==0)
     {
      cout<<hWnd<<" "<<dwProcessId<<"\t"<<window_name<<"\t"<<endl;
      ShowWindow(hWnd,SW_HIDE); 
     }
      
     CloseHandle(hProcess);
     return true;
}

int main()
{
    EnumWindows(EnumWindowsProc,NULL);
    system("pause");
    return 0;
}
