[...] Too bad I can’t use Snoop at first on Visual Studio 2010 running instances to prove this, but you can fix Snoop directly in the code using this tips. [...]

If you go one level deeper, you’ll see that IsValidProcess explicitly returns false for devenv, with a comment of “Remove VS, since it loads the WPF assemblies but we know that it doesn’t work”. Presumably this is referring to VS2008. So you should be able to just remove that condition and still filter out stuff that won’t work.

I was thinking that because several of the components in VS2010 itself were built with WPF 4.0, Snoop might have to be built against 4.0 as well.

I used VS2008 to rebuild Snoop. Are you thinking about anything particular by building it against .Net 4.0 ?

Out of curiosity, did you rebuild Snoop using VS2008 or VS2010? And if you used VS2010, did you build against .NET 4.0?
