[VB.NET - RELEASE] Automatic Mutex Updater [VB.NET - RELEASE]

I have finally completed my automatic mutex updater! I skipped the pictures as it's not the GUI that the focus lays on, the code is the important thing!

What is this?
Let's say you have alot of bots and you want to update their bot version. This updater checks if an older mutex is running and then kills the process and replaces the bot with a newer version.


I have made a program that goes trough the process step by step to show how the updater works. I have also made a program that does everything automaticly! Check it out and rate the thread if you like it!

Thanks :D

I will try making another more advanced version that handles more than one old version. I'm already on the way :)
This is quite a nice idea, good share going to download and check this out now!

Great! Please reply with what you thought about it:)
Common, check it out! It's really nice!
Isn't there anyone who is interested in this? :o
Its an interesting thing to be able to do, however I see it as somewhat pointless as you could just kill the process after having ran the new server on the machine to get rid of the old mutex
Downloading now and soon i post:)
It seem promising .I will get a better soon.

Yes, I thought about that too. But if your process got the name of a similar process like "svchost", then it's not so good to kill every process if the older version is running. So this only kills the process if the an old version is running.
What is a mutex? I see it all the time, but im to lazy to look it up :D

Ok, you do indeed have a very valid point there.😁
+rep added for the creative idea

Didnt test it myself, the idea is all that I would need if I wish to implement it Ill write something up myself so were not using the same snippets😁
