HELP \ Bypass “close other app first” detection on Windows (no VM/Sandbox)

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for a Windows method or tool to bypass a restriction enforced by an application.

Problem:
When I launch app (A), it scans the system, detects that app (B) is running, blocks startup, and asks me to close (B) first.

What I want:

  • Bypass this check/restriction

  • Keep (B) running and active

  • Run (A) at the same time

  • Without uninstalling (B) and without fully stopping it

To be clear:
I don’t mean only hiding (B) from the installed-apps list. I mean stopping (A) from detecting that (B) is currently running (e.g., process/window concealment or similar session-level techniques).

Note: I’m not looking for VMs or Sandbox solutions. Please suggest other practical tools/methods if you know any.

Any useful tips are appreciated. Thanks.
