How do I use Vista's "query process" with a long program name?

Question

I'm trying to use Vista's process list utility to find a PID. You should be able to do this:

query process program.exe

What I'm finding is that if the program name is short (like above), it will find it. But if it's long, like the following:

query process notificationmanager.exe

it won't find it. The length in question seems to be the display length of the query process command itself, which is 12 characters.

Is there a special syntax for specifying long program names?

Answer 1

Does it work if you put the program name in double quotes, e.g.:

query process "notificationmanager.exe"

Answer 2

if you can use wmic then

wmic process where "name = 'notificationmanager.exe' list brief

Answer 3

query process notificationmanager

Note, it isn't a matter of dropping the .exe, but rather just take the first 19 characters.

A consequence of this, is that it will return all processes whose name starts with notificationmanager.
