sys.waitprocess on windows 8.1

I'm using sys.waitprocess on windows 7 and trying to port my project to Windows 8.1. I think the sys.waitprocess is not seeing processes which are run by SYSTEM. It works fine when I use it with processes run by the user, in my spectific case, user name is iTools. iTools is an admin on the machine. And, I'm not sure this makes a difference, but the Windows 8.1 system is on a VM.

the context of sys.waitprocess is this:




While (Sys.WaitProcess("AlgorLocalLauncher").Exists )


    Delay(1000)
