GUP.exe process not detected

The running GUP.exe process of Notepad++ updater is not detected when installation from Software Center. I tried other approach and some commands but to no avail.
Any ideas, suggestions, solutions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Sorry, Your question is a bit too cryptic, please can you explain what you are trying to do in a little more detail.
Without it all we could offer are some suggestions that may not be helpful at all :wink:

we will update the existing old Notepad++ on all devices and also delete the updater folder via Software Center install, and we need in the pre-installation to detect and close processes of notepad++ and GUP before installing the latest version, however, GUP is not detected as a running process hence the message remained and the updater folder is not deleted

Are you using Show-ADTInstallationWelcome with -CloseProcesses? Which processes have you specified to be closed and how? Can you show us the Pre-Install/Install part of your Invoke-AppDeployToolkit.ps1 script?

Which PSADT version are you running?
I have tested your Show-ADTInstallationWelcome command in both 4.06 & 4.1 rc3 and it works correct in both of them. Both the GUP and notepad++ processes are closed and the uninstall finishes without any issue. And the only directory left by the silent uninstall command is C:\Program Files (x86)\Notepad++\contextMenu.

Sorry, I’m confused because I’ve used both versions 3.9.3 (not working) and 4.0.6 (working) in my tests. Anyway, thanks for the replies. We can close this topic.
