mutex

A program creates a mutex as part of its start-up. I don't know the format of this mutex so I wondered if there is a way to get a list of all non-abandoned mutex, open the program, get a new list and see if I can find the mutex by removing all duplicate entries.

Is there a way to get this list?

Officially, a mutex must be unlocked from the same thread which locks it, and I want the effect of being able to lock in one thread and then unlock in another. There are many ways to accomplish this. One possibility… >>> More

I've tried this MANY ways, here is the current iteration. I think I've just implemented this all wrong.
