# Finding Process ID/Process Name

You can use the Process ID or Process Name to capture and target the application. This helps perform automation or monitoring actions on the correct running instance, even when the window name is not available.

To view test step group results, perform the following actions:

{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: The **Process ID** is not always unique and can change when the application restarts. To avoid issues, use the **Process Name** instead.
{% endhint %}

1. Right-click on the taskbar and select **Task Manager**.
