with firefox being the example process. i dont see why this doesnt work.

Code
Copy
Select All

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.ComponentModel;

public static class VoiceBotScript
{
    public static void Run(IntPtr windowHandle)
    {
        // Process Name
        string windowText = "*firefox*";
        // If process is running then focus window
        if (Process.GetProcessesByName(windowText).Length > 0)
        {
            BFS.Window.Focus(BFS.Window.GetWindowByText(windowText));
        }
        // If process is not running output tts error
        else if (Process.GetProcessesByName(windowText).Length < 1)
        {
            BFS.Speech.TextToSpeech("Error");
        }
    }
}

I don't think Process.GetProcessByName takes a wildcard. We have a function that checks if a process is running though and does take a wildcard. Try this out:

Code
Copy
Select All

using System;
using System.Drawing;

public static class DisplayFusionFunction
{
    public static void Run(IntPtr windowHandle)
    {
        // Process Name
        string windowText = "*firefox*";
        // If process is running then focus window
        if (BFS.Application.IsAppRunningByFile(windowText))
        {
            BFS.Window.Focus(BFS.Window.GetWindowByText(windowText));
        }
        // If process is not running output tts error
        else
        {
            BFS.Speech.TextToSpeech("Error");
        }
    }
}
