  Hi,

  Try https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/programming-guide/namespaces/using-namespaces

  that is foreach (var process in System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("EXCEL")) should always work.

  If you want to use foreach (var process in Process.GetProcessesByName("EXCEL")) you have to use :

   using System.Diagnostics;

  so that the compiler can search this namespace and figure out your code actually uses "System.Diagnostics.Process"
