Abstract
The invention relates to a method or a device for obtaining a using-frequency of a specified application program. The method comprises: obtaining an installing route of the specified application program, according to a system-registering information list; calling an API to monitor operation of the specified application program; recording a last start-up time and the installing route of the specified application program; obtaining the last start-up time of the specified application program based on the installing route as an index; comparing the last start-up time and a current time, to determine the using-frequency of the specified application program. The present invention can intercept the process start functions of the Operation System, to easily and efficiently obtain the using-frequency of the specified application program, easily manage the application program installed in the computer, and provide the base for optimizing the Operation System of the computer.
