You need to use Pinvoke to execute some Win32 API to get all this info. Below is the sequence of Pinvoke that you need to use.

• GetForegroundWindow (to get current active window handle - hwnd)
• GetWindowThreadProcessId (to get the process ID and thread ID for the hwnd that you got in the above API call)
