Running a 64-bit Windows OS, in my 32-bit application I want to get the
full filename of all processes, including 64-bit processes, which are
running.

Whether EnumProcesses is not returning the process handle of 64-bit
processes, or OpenProcess with access rights of
PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION and PROCESS_VM_READ is not allowed to open a
64-bit process, or GetModuleFileNameEx is failing for a 64-bit process I
do not know, but the process information only shows for 32-bit
processes. Is there a way of getting process information for 64-bit
processes also from a 32-bit application ?

Edward,

The same question seems to have been mulled over here:
