WinAPI OpenProcess returns 0

Yes of course, that is actually the access code in my original post.

Eh, you don't even know what I asked.

Anyway, I'm glad you got it working.

Thanks. So do you understand why the given function resolves the issue?

I do! See first post.

I figured you'd have edited that post since you referred to it while implying that it is actually helpful. Unfortunately this does not seem to be the case..

Anyway since you answered a question about a rather complex (in my opinion) issue in just two words, it seems like I have to make some assumptions.

My assumption would be that you're saying that the access rights I have set were incorrect or not high enough.

However, I actually set the access rights to all rights possible. I also tried the other suggested access right and I set the debug privileges setting to true.

What solved was setting the debug privileges to true, but not by using the native functions - it only worked thanks to the Nomad's Memory function suggested by a very helpful user (thanks again).

Anyway since noone's going to explain why the normal access rights settings did not function in this case, I guess I will just have to remain "stupid" and simply use what is provided without fully understanding the inner workings.
