Printing memory usage information in textbox

[deeptech]

I am working on vb.net software. For example, I want to see the memory usage of a program called opera.exe. In the picture I pointed out with red fields. If the memory usage of this program is 21,180, I want to transfer it to the textbox. I want it to say 21180 in the textbox box.

 

 

Is this possible? Can I print a program's memory usage to the textbox box? Please help me. Thank you.

Yes it's possible. You need to use the Process class to find the process you want, and use the WorkingSet64 property (I think that's the one) to see how much memory it's using. You can also use PerformanceCounter for more accurate values. See links below for reference:
