I am trying to retrieve the real name of a UWP process, I have already tried to retrieve it through the window name MainWindowsTitle, ProcessName and etc, I tried for windows API calls but without success, what I need is the following name:

taskmanager

When I try to retrieve the process name by ProcessName I get: Music.UI.exe if I try to recover by MainWindowsTitle: Grove Music if minimized and Empty.String if it is in any other state. I have already tried to recover by AppManifest also without success because la is not the real name of the application.

Does anyone have any solution to get the exact name as the taskmanager does with nested processes? Or at least explain how windows works with this type of application ...

Which name in the screenshot are you referring to? The top-level name of the child window or child process name? – Dai Mar 24 '19 at 01:07
