At the moment Im using the GetWindow API to find a specific window and bring it to the foreground and set focus to it. <br>
<br>
Is there a better way? By returning the caption of each window, I can find the one Im looking for, but mostly there are multiple windows for each process thread. Im maximising all the windows that have the caption name of the process Im looking for, but is it possible to use the hInstance of the process to find it and bring it to the foreground?
