Some .Net applications are required to run as single instance process (at startup, each process “ensures” that he’s unique). This requirement may come from licensing issues, technical and/or other reasons. Quick search in Google will provide a variety of solutions , most of them are based on WindowsFormsApplicationBase object from VB.Net, usage of Mutex object and other techniques. I don’t like mixing VB with C#, and also Win-Forms solution isn’t “pure” enough for WPF applications. So I wrote my...

The “ Keys Notificator ” is an open-source project and is a part of my community contribution under GNU General Public License . The published...

I have been driving (legally) for ages and ages One would think I would have noticed the little secret on my dash that was staring me right in the face the whole time. I didn’t and I bet you probably haven’t either. Quick question - what side of your car is your gas tank? If you are anything like me, you probably can’t remember right away. My solution is to uncomfortably stick my head out the window, strain my neck and look. If you don’t do this in your own car you definitely have done it in a borrowed...
