Multiple instances of an acrobat.exe...

Hello..
I have this logic of invoking multiple instances of a acrobat.exe to execute the plug-in multiple times in order to increase the effiency of the file processing.. but result which I am gettin is while is invoke two different instances of acrobat.exe at a time only one instance ill be running the other instance will remain idol..
Can you people suggest me any method wher is can invoke several instance of the acrobat.exe and all these instance shud actively participate in the plug in execution...the plugin which I have developed is tottally automated just invoking the exe will perform all the task...
thankzzzzzzzzz......

Hi!
   It works fine, thanks! But this lead to some questions
   - Where do I find infos on editing application generated .ini files?
   - Isn't there a way to do this for an application build with "application builder"? Or should i tell user to manually edit .ini file?
   Really thanks again!
graziano
PS.: I spent some years in building embedded LV applications, so every time it comes to graphical interfaces or PC-based apps in general, I need help ..... perhaps, sometimes I need help on FieldPoint too

I want to separate Flash players into multiple instances of plugin-container.exe

Let's say I'm watching a video online and I feel like playing a Flash game while watching it. Let's also assume that this Flash game, like many others, has no volume options and is obnoxiously loud, drowning out the video.
All running Flash players (even between separate windows of Firefox) share the same process, so if I try to drop the volume of the game in Windows 7, it drops the volume of the video as well.
Is there some way to get firefox to load Flash players into separate process so that Windows can give me volume control over each? Perhaps there is an addon that does this?
P.S. I tried the -no-remote command line option on Firefox, but it turns out that each instance of firefox.exe requires a separate profile (which is an issue if the game uses cookies). I'd rather be able to get one instance of firefox.exe to use multiple instances of plugin-container.exe.

Error while loading the multiple instance of Acrobat

Dear all,
     While loading multiple instances of an acrobat application I get an error message stating that:
          "The organizer database is damaged and will be reset the next time Acrobat is launched.
           Quit the Application and close any currently opened browsers."
     Can anyone tell me the reason why this occurs, the version of the acrobat is 8.0 (it is a licencedVersion).

AddOn Exe running multiple instance in client machine

Hello Experts,
I have created a addon which i have installed in the server .While connecting the addon from the client machine addon runs
well . But at the end of day when i see the task manager their it shows two to three instance of that addon exe running
.I have written the application event in my addon for its termination when the sap is closed or addon is stopped.
Even though system shows two to three instance of that addon exe running on that client machine.
Suggest how to solve this multiple instance problem of AddOn Exe.
Thanks & Regards,
Amit

Hello Amit,
this comes because SAP B1 Dumps, and your addon is not terminated. You can check the
C:\Program Files\SAP\SAP Business One\Log folder for SAP B1 logs. If you see more than 1 file per day, you can make sure, that the application has been restarted.
When B1 dumps,. the addons are not getting disconnected, so you can build a monitoring procedure into the addon, to look SAP B1 is alive or not.
In forum, last year I have sent at least 2 solutions for handling this issue, but it is very hard to handle in terminal servers because there you running several SAP Business One.exe applications.
If you not using terminal server, it is not an problem. follow up this threads

Acrobat X intermittently won't launch, multiple Acrobat.exe processes hanging in task manager

Apologies if this is in the wrong community area - I was unsure where it belongs.
This is an intermittent issue, but does happen several times a day.
Regardless of what method is used to launch Acrobat (double-clicking a PDF, clicking the shortcut in the taskbar, selecting Acrobat from the start menu), often the application won't launch. Upon investigation, task manager shows multiple instances of Acrobat.exe, although the application is not running (see the image below). Ending all Acrobat.exe processes does allow Acrobat to launch.
Any thoughts as to what might be causing this, as well as a more permanent fix? The workaround of constantly ending multiple processes is becoming cumbersome.
We are running Acrobat X Pro in Windows 7. I also have several CC 2014 apps installed (as well as a couple of earlier versions required for plugin functionality).

This happens all the time in my company with several installs of Acrobat.
The only way to fix this for us is to end each process in Task Manager as you have pointed out.
It is very time consuming in our workflow as we each operator deals with hundreds of PDFs daily, and has to do this End Process procedure several times a day.
We have done several tests and nothing seems to stop this from happening.

Multiple instances of explorer.exe running in task manager

I got a dropper trojan virus on my computer that microsoft security essencials do not recognized but after running "superantispyware" antivirus I got discover it and delete it. After that, I still could find the infected files in my
administrator folders as .temp files and I just erased them. After that my computer started crashing and runing several instances of explorer.exe in the task manager with different memory values, some of them ascending to 350,000. I have set up my computer
to run just the basic services, I have tried windows in safe mode, ran other antivirus programs but still it is performing the same. As far as I have noticed other unusual process present are host.dll, dllhost.exe, and logonUI.exe. Any idea about it? Thanks
in advance for your help.

I have the same issue. It started about a month ago when I was filling out a form online and had to quit and close the window. My system got very buggy (can't remember details), flashing, then really slow. Found a bunch of explorer.exe instances
in Task Manager. Ran Security Essentials and several other anti-viruses, nothing found.
Running Win7 Pro, sp1, 64-bit, CoreI5, 4Gb Ram
Restored system to a previous version, didn't work
Restored last system image, didn't work
Used System Repair Disk - ran Memory Diagnostic. Said it would give me report after reboot. Never saw a report after reboot. But only one instance of explorer.exe in task manager at that point. Took disk out, rebooted normally. After
20 minutes or so, the multiple instances were back.
Used Repair Disk again, ran Memory Diagnostic. Again, no report after reboot (leaving disk in machine both times), but only one instance running again.
Did this a few times with the same result, so now leaving disk in system and always boot from it.
Ran Security Essentials again, found that rovnix virus, removed, ran again, found it again.
Ran search for instances and found many. Here's an example:
C:\Windows\explorer.exe
C:\Windows\winsxs\wow64_microsoft-windows-explorer_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7601.17567_none_b9fc4815c4e292b5

C:\Windows\winsxs\wow64_microsoft-windows-explorer_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7601.21669_none_ba87e574ddfe652d

C:\Windows\SysWOW64
When I check properties on the now single one on Task Manager, this is what it shows:
C:\Windows\winsxs\amd64_microsoft-windows-explorer_31bf3856ad364e35_6.1.7601.17567_none_afa79dc39081d0ba\explorer.exe
C:\Windows\explorer.exe
I was going to reinstall entire system, but was from an Anytime Upgrade which now says it's invalid. Much more to story on that (calls to MS support, etc.).

How can i run multiple instances of Photoshop EXE at the same time on windows 7

Alright. You may ask why do you need multiple ?
Assume that i have 10000 PSD files in 10 different folders
I have a script that just save as them as PNG
And these files are each 3000x3000 px
My computer has 8 cores and 1 photoshop exe is only using 1 cpu core
Also i have SSD raid system it has 750 mb read write per second
So right now i am wasting my time with running only 1 photoshop exe instead of at least 4

I'm not aware of a way to run multiple instances or different versions of photoshop at the same time on windows.
Assuming of course they are all installed on the same operating system.
On mac versions you can running two different versions of photoshop at the same time, but i don't think that's possible on windows where it
appears that only one version of photoshop can run at a time.

Multiple Instance of HSODBC.EXE

Hi,
I'm using Oracle 8.1.7.4 (W2K) with heterogeneous services to connect via dblink to DB2/400.
I can read successfully several tables from AS400; but a multiple instance of 'hsodbc.exe' ( i.e. one task for one interrogation) are created on task manager.
If I try to end a hsodbc I can't.
After several interrogation, I can't use again hsodbc and the system returns the following error:
ORA-28500 [Generic Connectivity Using ODBC] a dynamic link library (DLL) initialization routine failed; at FIND_IMAGE_SYMBOL
cannot connect to shareable nvdbodbc. Using dummy function
Initialization function ODBC not found.
ORA-02063
Is there any particular configuration of heterogeneous services that avoid a multiple instance of 'hsodbc.exe' ?
This is a serious problem for us.
Regards
Andrea

Andrea,
this normally indicates, that an established session is not correctly ended.
In general you need to close database links after you do not need them anymore.
A SQL*Plus session for example querying from the remote database will normally close the db link automatically while ending the SQL*Plus session.
Sometimes it could happen, that you end SQLÃPlus during long runnning queries; in this situaotion it might happen, that hsodbc will stay in the mmory. To get rid of those hsodbc processes, you may use pskill from www.sysinternals.com.
If the hsodbc processes are spawned by frequentyl running job systems, you need to close the database link manually afterwards.
alter session close database link <db link name>;

ImportREDServer.exe Running Multiple Instances

When I launch Premiere CS5 it starts up 8 instances of ImportREDServer.exe (see attached). Is this normal? Also, when I am opening my project (1200+ R3D clips), it loads a few hundred then freezes (not responding) for 30 - 60 seconds, then loads a few hundred more, and so on. I don't know if these are related. However, when I open the CS4 version of the project in CS4 it loads much faster and smoother. Any thoughts?
Specs:
Premiere 5.0.2
Windows 7 64 bit
6GB RAM
i7 1.6GHz
Firewire 800 6TB LaCie connected via ExpressCard Adapter

Yes, it is normal for multiple instances of ImporterREDServer to start---up to one per processor core.
You have a rather small amount of RAM for a computer with eight processors. If there are several instances of the RED importer running for loading hundreds of RED clips, it's going to take a while, especially if these instances are fighting over a small amount of RAM. Whenever software fights over RAM, you run into delays, especially if the contents of the RAM end up getting swapped to the hard disk.
I have 24GB of RAM in my home computer with the same number of processor cores that you have. It makes a great positive difference.

Multiple instances of Acrobat X won´t launch

Hi All,
Recently when I have opened a PDF from a map on my pc, I cannot open a PDF from Firefox/Internet Explorer/Outlook anymore.
I still can open as many PDF´s as I want from any map on my PC.
For every instance I tried to open a PDF from Firefox/Internet Explorer/Outlook, I get the Fatal error message: 'Adobe failed to connect to a dde server'
If I haven´t opened any PDF´s yet, I can open the PDF from Firefox/Internet Explorer/Outlook. And I can open as many as I want. I even can open PDF's from any location on my computer. But the other way around is not possible.
Does anyone have a solution???
Best,

The software has been fully activated including getting my serial number through registration of an academic account, activating my online account, and activating the account. There are, as far as I can tell, no further things that I need to do. By reinstalling the software I was able to get Acrobat to work again, but I am afraid now that I won't be able to run any updates.

-TesStand - On PreLoad - Multiple instances of nimxsoffline.exe opened?

nimxsoffline.exe - On TestStand Preload - multiple instances are opened and stay open unless Modules are unloaded (2013 & 2012SP1)
It is Workspace dependant and happens on a TestStand Preload.
All Code Modules are Labview and there are Project specific StepTypes.
Has anyone seen this before ?

Hi Teuch,
Thank you for your question. It is absolutely fine that nimxsoffline.exe since it is required for
a TestStand to work properly.
It is a system service and it should not cause you any problems.

Multiple instances of AcroRd32.exe while using Windows Explorer Preview Pane

I'm trying to understand why our computers behave differently while browsing PDF files using Windows Explorer with the preview pane turned on.
All are Windows 7 Pro 32-bit.
The scenario: Open Windows Explorer with the preview pane turned on, go to a folder full of PDF files, and start single-clicking on them, one by one down the list. Keep Task Manager open, on the Processes tab, showing processes from all users, as you click on the PDF files.
On two of the computers, you can keep clicking right on the down the list, and the preview pane shows the PDF file contents immediately with each click. The Task Manager does not show any instances of AcroRd32.exe running, and the machine does not slow down no matter how quickly you go down the list of files. You can keep clicking all day.
On the other two computers, as you keep clicking down the list, after about six or seven clicks, the machine starts getting slower and slower in responding to display the PDF contents. In Task Manager, you see multiple instances of AcroRd32.exe executing, and the list keeps growing with more instances - I've seen up to 8, with memory allocations to some of the instances approaching 700MB! One of the CPU cores goes to 100%. If you stop clicking in Windows Explorer, eventually, the machine recovers, and the list of multiple instances of AcroRd32.exe shrinks, but never goes away completely until you close the Explorer window.
What could account for this difference? One of the users is complaining - he often browses folders of scanned PDFs looking for invoices, transactions, etc., and has to go slowly to keep his machine from bogging down. I don't know when this behavior started.
It doesn't matter if it is a shared folder on a network resource or one locally on the machine, or if it is an admin or standard Windows account - the behavior is the same. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Adobe Reader, to no avail.
Thanks for any ideas.

Yes i'm having this issue to.
Becomes worse after display many documents in pane, worst even if scanned images are in.
After killing the process, sometimes it generate even more process.
After Killing all the process, sometimes need to deactivate the pane view and activate
again to restore normal preview.
Sometimes it takes a lot of time to progress to file below, if i wait, going to files above, it pass
the file that shows delay, without any problem.
I add received from Microsoft, in answer to the same issue to uninstall adobe reader and install
latest version. It become a bit more stable, but problem still shows.
Abobe reader: 10.1.0, ATI latest drivers 11-07

Multiple instances of nilm.exe zombies causing laptop to crash

Symptom:
My laptop was recently disabled by multiple instances of nilm.exe.
The computer became sluggish and eventually could only be shutdown by removing the battery.
The task manager reported that the amount of memory being using was over 1 Gig and growing. Task manager processes showed pages of nilm.exe, presumably zombies.
And of course the critial error pop-up - "nilm.exe could not initialize." that was always in top and could not be cleared.
Extreme measure taken:
Because of the sluggish performance I could not get to the service menu to shutdown the parent NI service. Instead I renamed the file nilm.exe to killnilm.exe thus inhibiting spawning yet another copy of nilm.exe.
At this point I re-booted and set the parent NI license management service to start manually.
Complaint:
The NI knowledge base lists this as a known problem and that only one copy of nilm.exe should be running. The knowledge base also states the root cause is that TCP/IP is incorrectly configured. I do not agree this root cause statement. The root cause is poor programming practice that allows the lack of a computer resource (TCP/IP sockets connection) to completely crash a computer.

Hi jwillis172,
I guess that you are referring to the following KnowledgeBase:
Multiple NILM Processes after Installing LabVIEW and the NI License Manager
Did the solution/workaround in the KB resolve your issue? If not, please let me know.
I'm not a developer, but I see your point in the statement that a
missing computer resource should not result in a crash. Please make
sure to submit your feedback to the KB through the option on the bottom
of the page. This will bring your feedback to the responsible person
for the KB.
Thanks!

Whenever I sync, multiple instances of (and by multiple, I mean literally dozens) of copies of "com.apple.outlook.client.exe *32" begin opening. They continue opening until iTunes basically grinds to a halt. This happens with MobileMe, too, and means I can't sync up with Outlook.

Checked: I'm using a 32-bit version of Outlook and not a 64-bit. Did not sync via a second user's installation, either.
Still searching for resolution.
Note: All other syncing still works, iTunes only crashes under the weight of 90 or so com.apple.Outlook.client.exe instances when any (any) Outlook-related option is checked, including Outlook-related options in MobileMe. The processes can be killed all at once by right clicking "SyncServer.exe" in the task manager and clicking "End Process Tree."
