hi uahmed,

welcome msdn forum.

you can try sample below.

        [dllimport("user32")]         private static extern int setforegroundwindow(intptr hwnd);          // activate or minimize window          [dllimportattribute("user32.dll")]         private static extern bool showwindow(intptr hwnd, int ncmdshow);         private const int sw_show = 5;         private const int sw_minimize = 6;         private const int sw_restore = 9;            static void main(string[] args)         {             process[] proclist = process.getprocessesbyname("notepad");             if (proclist.length > 0)             {                 showwindow(proclist[0].mainwindowhandle, sw_restore);                 setforegroundwindow(proclist[0].mainwindowhandle);             }           }

have nice day.
