❔ Check for background progress
Hello, i am try to use the backgroundWorker to check for a running background progress to get the ID of it and update the progress of this in a label. but i am stuck in how to make this as seperate thread and update the label and check if the progress is present at any time or not

did you check the docs?
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.componentmodel.backgroundworker?view=net-7.0
long story short
when initializing the worker you set WorkerReportsProgress = true;
then do your stuff in the the backgroudnworker, and when you want to to show the some update call ReportProgress
BackgroundWorker Class (System.ComponentModel)
Executes an operation on a separate thread.
okay, so i can loop stuff in worker in own thread inside process yes
what i try todo is check each 250ms if process with name is active and update this thime the label with the name i give so each 250ms is a check in seperate thread. or can it be done in better way
