How can i get Current running Application name and ID in WinForm C#?

public static string GetActiveProcessFileName()
{        
   try
    {
        IntPtr hwnd = GetForegroundWindow();
        uint pid;
        GetWindowThreadProcessId(hwnd, out pid);
        Process p = Process.GetProcessById((int)pid);

        CommandLine = GetMainModuleFilepath((int)pid);

    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        ErrorLog.ErrorLog.Log(ex);
        return "Explorer";
    }
}

 public static string GetMainModuleFilepath(int processId)
    {
        try
        {
            wmiQueryString = "SELECT * FROM Win32_Process WHERE ProcessId = " + processId;
            using (searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher(wmiQueryString))
            {
                using (results = searcher.Get())
                {


                    mo = results.Cast<ManagementObject>().FirstOrDefault();
                    if (mo != null)
                    {
                        return ((object)mo["CommandLine"]).ToString();
                    }
                }
            }
            //Process testProcess = Process.GetProcessById(processId);
            return null;
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            ErrorLog.ErrorLog.Log(ex);
            return null;
        }
    }

Here I get ProcessID and it's working. But I want I to find the Application Name and ID.

How can I get Running Application names with ID and how to pass Id to `Win32_Process Table.

I added win32_proceess for getting processid but we trace the application Id

Voted for Jonathan's but would like to add another way (as long as you're not using click once)

System.AppDomain.CurrentDomain.FriendlyName

You can get the application id and name using a method of the process class:

System.Diagnostics.Process p = System.Diagnostics.Process.GetCurrentProcess();
int id = p.Id;
string name = p.ProcessName;
