Printing memory usage information in textbox


Question

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:

    • Hey Nick! 👋 No worries at all — you're not alone in this, and it's great you're asking for help. Let me walk you through a simple, step-by-step fix using the tool mentioned on that AOMEI Partition Assistant guide — it really does the trick for many people with this exact issue! ✅ Here’s how to restore your USB back to full 256GB on Windows 11: Download & Install AOMEI Partition Assistant Go to the link you shared: AOMEI Partition Assistant and click the Download Freeware button. Insert your USB stick (Sandisk Ultra 256GB) Make sure it's properly connected. Wait for the system to detect it. Launch AOMEI Partition Assistant Once open, you'll see all your connected drives listed. Locate your USB Drive Look for the one that says something like Disk X – Removable and shows only 3.1GB or so. Right-click on your USB Drive’s Partition Then select Delete Partition → confirm the deletion. Now, right-click on the unallocated space (it should now show full unallocated capacity) Choose Create Partition → format it as FAT32 or exFAT (recommended for larger drives) → click OK. Click “Apply” in the top left corner Then hit Proceed to execute the pending operations. Wait a bit... and boom! 🎉 Your USB should now be restored to its full 256GB capacity!
