To get the logged in user of an application I would suggest to read the SessionId of the current process that is independent from the user actually running the application. The SessionId of a process can be read with:
System.Diagnostics.Process.GetCurrentProcess().SessionId
The username associated with a SessionId can be retrieved using the function from this answer: Get Windows user name from SessionID .
The function GetUsernameBySessionId
also requires this enumeration:
public enum WtsInfoClass
{
WTSInitialProgram = 0,
WTSApplicationName = 1,
WTSWorkingDirectory = 2,
WTSOEMId = 3,
WTSSessionId = 4,
WTSUserName = 5,
WTSWinStationName = 6,
WTSDomainName = 7,
WTSConnectState = 8,
WTSClientBuildNumber = 9,
WTSClientName = 10,
WTSClientDirectory = 11,
WTSClientProductId = 12,
WTSClientHardwareId = 13,
WTSClientAddress = 14,
WTSClientDisplay = 15,
WTSClientProtocolType = 16,
WTSIdleTime = 17,
WTSLogonTime = 18,
WTSIncomingBytes = 19,
WTSOutgoingBytes = 20,
WTSIncomingFrames = 21,
WTSOutgoingFrames = 22,
WTSClientInfo = 23,
WTSSessionInfo = 24,
WTSSessionInfoEx = 25,
WTSConfigInfo = 26,
WTSValidationInfo = 27,
WTSSessionAddressV4 = 28,
WTSIsRemoteSession = 29
}
