Namespace:  System
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Property Value

Type: System..::.Boolean
true if the current process is running in user interactive mode; otherwise, false.

The UserInteractive property reports false for a Windows process or a service like IIS that runs without a user interface. If this property is false, do not display modal dialogs or message boxes because there is no graphical user interface for the user to interact with.

The following example displays whether the current process is running in user interactive mode.

Visual Basic
' Sample for the Environment.UserInteractive property
Imports System

Class Sample
   Public Shared Sub Main()
      Console.WriteLine()
      Console.WriteLine("UserInteractive: {0}", Environment.UserInteractive)
   End Sub 'Main
End Class 'Sample
'
'This example produces the following results:
'
'UserInteractive: True
'

C#
// Sample for the Environment.UserInteractive property
using System;

class Sample 
{
    public static void Main() 
    {
    Console.WriteLine();
    Console.WriteLine("UserInteractive: {0}", Environment.UserInteractive);
    }
}
/*
