Sorry for expressing myself so complicated.

What I was actually trying to say: Would it possible to modify your app, so when the config contains

<add key="RunningProcessName" value="Diablo III"/>

it will look for either a "Diablo III" or "Diablo III64" process?

The turbohud process path cannot be the same for both D3 clients, so i would say it's not a so great idea ;p

It's possible but would destroy the 'Simple' part of this little tool.

I updated it to handle multiple watchers.
See OP for usage.

[smoochy84]

Thank you very much. This was what I was looking for

Could you also please add the binary for download? It is still missing

[JackCeparou]

Done, the file was there but corrupted, dunno what happened ^^'

[smoochy84]

Works perfectly. Thanks again.

Yep, no limit.

Well, i guess it will choke after too much watchers, but nothing will prevent you from watching thousands of processes ^^'

[MrOne]

probably issue ...
when i watch two times same application lik Diablo III then watchdog watch only second row (many "watch" in this sentence )

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
  <configSections>
    <section name="WatchDogConfig" type="SimpleWatchDog.Configuration.WatchDogConfig, SimpleWatchDog" allowLocation="true" allowDefinition="Everywhere" />
  </configSections>
  <WatchDogConfig>
    <watchDogs>
      <watchDog runningProcessName="Diablo III" watchProcessName="Turbo" launchPath="C:\PATH\TO\Turbo.exe" timer="1000"/> <-- this line skips
      <watchDog runningProcessName="Diablo III" watchProcessName="TeamSpeak" launchPath="C:\PATH\TO\TeamSpeak.exe" timer="1000"/> <-- watch only this line
      <watchDog runningProcessName="TeamSpeak" watchProcessName="TSNotifier" launchPath="C:\PATH\TO\TSNotifier.exe" timer="1000"/> <-- and this line
    </watchDogs>
  </WatchDogConfig>
</configuration>

when i remove last line than

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
  <configSections>
    <section name="WatchDogConfig" type="SimpleWatchDog.Configuration.WatchDogConfig, SimpleWatchDog" allowLocation="true" allowDefinition="Everywhere" />

  <WatchDogConfig>
    <watchDogs>
      <watchDog runningProcessName="Diablo III" watchProcessName="Turbo" launchPath="C:\PATH\TO\Turbo.exe" timer="1000"/> <-- this line skips
      <watchDog runningProcessName="Diablo III" watchProcessName="TeamSpeak" launchPath="C:\PATH\TO\TeamSpeak.exe" timer="1000"/> <-- watch only this line
    </watchDogs>
  </WatchDogConfig>
