    Hey,
    Is there a way in windows to deny a program to scan the running processes?

    Thanks for the answers.

      Don’t run it “as administrator”. Users, who aren’t administrator, need to enter an administrator password. Don’t give them that.

      You, as administrator, is the only one who can run such a program then.

        Thanks for the reply.
        I want to run the program but without it scanning the processes. So there is no way to disable just that feature?

          If the author didn’t include that feature (check the user manual) there’s no way. And,, most likely, if there was, it would run into an error and abend with an error message.

          I’m afraid you’ll have to find another program that does what you want without scanning the running processes.
