I'm using the following code trying to get OS wide keyboard inputs with no luck:
using System;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
class InterceptKeys
{
private const int WH_KEYBOARD_LL = 13;
private const int WM_KEYDOWN = 0x0100;
private static LowLevelKeyboardProc _proc = HookCallback;
private static IntPtr _hookID = IntPtr.Zero;
public static void Main()
{
_hookID = SetHook(_proc);
while(true)
continue;
}
private static IntPtr SetHook(LowLevelKeyboardProc proc)
{
using (Process curProcess = Process.GetCurrentProcess())
using (ProcessModule curModule = curProcess.MainModule)
{
return SetWindowsHookEx(WH_KEYBOARD_LL, proc,
GetModuleHandle(curModule.ModuleName), 0);
}
}
private delegate IntPtr LowLevelKeyboardProc(int nCode, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam);
private static IntPtr HookCallback(int nCode, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam)
{
if (nCode >= 0 && wParam == (IntPtr)WM_KEYDOWN)
{
int vkCode = Marshal.ReadInt32(lParam);
Console.WriteLine(vkCode);
}
return CallNextHookEx(_hookID, nCode, wParam, lParam);
}
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)]
private static extern IntPtr SetWindowsHookEx(int idHook, LowLevelKeyboardProc lpfn, IntPtr hMod, uint dwThreadId);
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)]
[return: MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.Bool)]
private static extern bool UnhookWindowsHookEx(IntPtr hhk);
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)]
private static extern IntPtr CallNextHookEx(IntPtr hhk, int nCode, IntPtr wParam, IntPtr lParam);
[DllImport("kernel32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Auto, SetLastError = true)]
private static extern IntPtr GetModuleHandle(string lpModuleName);
}
HookCallback is simply not being called. I have a suspicion it's trying to listen only to a form which doesn't exist rather than running system wide.
Low-level Windows hooks internally use Windows messaging. The thread that calls SetWindowsHookEx must have the message loop in the end, which allows to call HookCallback function. In C++ message loop looks like this:
MSG msg;
BOOL result;
for (;;)
{
result = GetMessage(&msg, nullptr, 0, 0);
if (result <= 0)
{
break;
}
TranslateMessage(&msg);
DispatchMessage(&msg);
}
Find all required PInvoke definitions for GetMessage, TranslateMessage, DispatchMessage and MSG, translate this code to C# and place it instead of your endless loop while(true). You can find all this stuff at PInvoke.Net, see also this Microsoft forum discussion:
Console keyboard hook not getting called
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/ed5be22c-cef8-4615-a625-d05caf113afc/console-keyboard-hook-not-getting-called?forum=csharpgeneral
I'm obviously very late but just hoping I could help (if the OP haven't have yet the help he/she needed) so I'm posting my answer.
It says in the MSDN documentation that when you want to set a system-wide hook, you must give the hMod parameter a
handle to the DLL containing the hook procedure pointed to by the lpfn
parameter
and
If the dwThreadId parameter is zero or specifies the identifier of a
thread created by a different process, the lpfn parameter must point
to a hook procedure in a DLL
but, look at this:
SetWindowsHookEx(2, kbdHookProc, GetModuleHandle("user32"), 0)
kbdHookProc is a function in my C# winforms application but the value I gave in the hMod parameter is the hinstance obtained by loading user32.dll via GetModuleHandle. I am using the keyboard hook (WH_KEYBOARD) to monitor locking of capslock, numlock and scroll lock keys. Don't ask me why I did that and would it work or why it works because I don't know but, yes, IT WORKS!
For a full answer to this;
As Alex says, you'll need a message loop to process windows messages and call your hooks,
public class MessageLoop
{
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern int GetMessage(out MSG lpMsg, IntPtr hWnd, uint wMsgFilterMin,
uint wMsgFilterMax);
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern bool TranslateMessage([In] ref MSG lpMsg);
[DllImport("user32.dll")]
private static extern IntPtr DispatchMessage([In] ref MSG lpmsg);
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public struct MSG
{
IntPtr hwnd;
uint message;
UIntPtr wParam;
IntPtr lParam;
int time;
POINT pt;
int lPrivate;
}
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
public struct POINT
{
public int X;
public int Y;
public POINT(int x, int y)
{
X = x;
Y = y;
}
public static implicit operator System.Drawing.Point(POINT p)
{
return new System.Drawing.Point(p.X, p.Y);
}
public static implicit operator POINT(System.Drawing.Point p)
{
return new POINT(p.X, p.Y);
}
public override string ToString()
{
return $"X: {X}, Y: {Y}";
}
}
private Action InitialAction { get; }
private Thread? Thread { get; set; }
public bool IsRunning { get; private set; }
public MessageLoop(Action initialAction)
{
InitialAction = initialAction;
}
public void Start()
{
IsRunning = true;
Thread = new Thread(() =>
{
InitialAction.Invoke();
while (IsRunning)
{
var result = GetMessage(out var message, IntPtr.Zero, 0, 0);
if (result <= 0)
{
Stop();
continue;
}
TranslateMessage(ref message);
DispatchMessage(ref message);
}
});
Thread.Start();
}
public void Stop()
{
IsRunning = false;
}
}
I use a separate thread here to avoid blocking the main thread.
The InterceptKeys class as shown in the question needs no modification;
class InterceptKeys
{
// ...
public static void Main()
{
var loop = new MessageLoop(() => {
_hookID = SetHook(_proc);
});
while (Console.ReadKey(true) != ConsoleKey.X) // For exemplary purposes
{
continue;
}
loop.Stop();
}
// ...
}

I'm trying to disable specific keys when a specific process is detected, but for a reason, it's not set the hook correctly so it's not working.
The code should do:
Detect if notepad.exe has been detected (already coded the function but i didnt write it here).
Now from the checking thread, it will start the hook thread which will implement a low-level keyboard hook to prevent the user from using specific keys into the target process.
here is the code that I'm using:

I have code very similar to this question running in a windows tray application, even with this exact code from the question I get the same behavior. It all works well on classic windows applications, such as Firefox, Chrome, Windows Explorer etc. However when the mouse focus gets to a UWP app such as Edge or Calendar or Mail the scroll becomes jittery and after a few dozen scrolls performed my application hangs and can't even be terminated from task manager (permission denied), this behavior is very reproducible.
I'll paste the code from the question here:

Is it possible that I'm dealing with a bug in windows here? Any pointers to how I can find out what's going on?
Update:
I have created a test Win32 application in C++ to more easily reproduce/demonstrate the problem. The issue is with the SendCommand which when executed while any classic application is in focus works fine. However when executed while a UWP application is in focus, or even the windows launch/start menu causes the calling application (my application) to hang and be stuck until windows is restarted.
An effective workaround/solution for this problem is to perform the SendCommand call on another thread from the thread handling the hook callback. Immediately launching the thread that executes SendCommand and returning from the hook callback produces the desired behavior and doesn't cause any problems.
if (hookStruct.flags != -1) //prevents recursive call to self
That's rather important, yes. But how the statement could possibly do its job is very unclear. The expected value of this field is 0, 1 or 3. Never -1. You perhaps got mislead by another mouse hook that is active on your machine.
Now it does matter whether a WinRT app is in the foreground. Because then the message broker is involved and the field value changes, the LLMHF_LOWER_IL_INJECTED bit is turned on. WinRT apps run in a sandbox that run at a lower integrity level. So the field will not be -1 and your SendInput() call triggers the mouse hook again. On and on it goes, show is over when it runs out of stack.
So first possible fix is to use the field as intended, change the statement to:
if ((hookStruct.flags & 1) == 0)
Won't work if that presumed wonky mouse hook is corrupting the field, then consider using a static bool field in your class to break the recursion. Set it to true before the SendInput() call, false afterwards.
But I think I know why you are doing this, I too have been a victim of a trackpad that got it backwards. There is a much easier way to do it, just modify the FlipFlopWheel setting.
I'm trying to implement a screencast application and i need to show the location of mouse on click.
How can I show the location of the pointer(mouse) like there is default on windows with the CTRL key if you enable that option on (Mouse Properties-> Pointer Options -> Show location of pointer when I press the CTRL key)
Is there any good solution rather than just draw a circle on canvas with a storyboard to getting smaller and then disappear ?
You can get the mouse location using Cursor.Position
Then you can draw your circle around the the cursor location.
So if you need it by a key press like with the ctrl scenario you can bind an event listener for key press or if you need something constant you can set an event listener on the mouse move.
Hope it will help

EDIT3:
I need a list from all windows a thread has. Not FindWindowsEnum() because it only returns Top level Windows.... I need the window handle befor it's visible
END EDIT3
EDIT2:
Short desciption: I need a method, where i can get a "window handle" from a thread.
END EDIT2:
EDIT:
First of all i can't use FindWindowsEnum()!!!
Because it only returns the top windows. I have to kill the window befor it is visible. So i have to get The Handle of the window by a Thread ID.
EDIT END:
I got a problem by a window which i have to close which is not focused or something like that. I have to close the window as it pops up. I only use code.
What i got:
This is the extern class where I import one dll and some functions which use the functions from the dll.

int count);
[DllImport("user32.dll", CharSet = CharSet.Unicode)]
public static extern int GetWindowTextLength(IntPtr handle);
public const UInt32 WM_CLOSE = 0x0010;
}
at this class i use the functions from the extern class.
I start a Thread which runs every 10 milli secounds and kill a window in another method.
public Disk_UC()
{
InitializeComponent();
Thread killit = new Thread(this.killIt);

{
IntPtr[] windows = api.GetWindowHandlesForThread(threadID);
if (windows != null && windows.Length > 0)
foreach (IntPtr hWnd in windows)
{
killWindow(hWnd, threadID);
}
}
Thread.Sleep(10);
}
}
//Method which calls all the extern dll stuff
private bool killWindow(IntPtr handle, int param)
{
var length = FindWindowApi.GetWindowTextLength(handle);
var caption = new StringBuilder(length + 1);
FindWindowApi.GetWindowText(handle, caption, caption.Capacity);
IntPtr windowPtr = FindWindowApi.FindWindowByCaption(IntPtr.Zero, caption.ToString());
if (windowPtr == IntPtr.Zero)
{
return false;
}
FindWindowApi.SendMessage(windowPtr, FindWindowApi.WM_CLOSE, IntPtr.Zero, IntPtr.Zero);
return true;
}
My Problem is now how can i get this specific window handle.
when the Thread "fillData" pops up the window. So i save the thread ID from this Thread fillData.
Now i call the other Methods with this thread id. I got the Thread ID and i get so many windows from the Process. But i need this specific window from that thread.
This is the code for my keyhooking class, but it doesn't work. I was wondering if someone can tell me why? I'm instansiating it in another Console application. The debug message gives the proper output, but the keyboard hook simply doesn't catch keys. I was hoping if someone could tell me why.

Are you calling Application.Run in your Main function?
The standard Console thread doesn't have a message loop, which is required for hooks to work properly, Application.Run takes care of that.
