There are really two approaches you can take.

You can do process by name:

Process result = Process.GetProcessesByName( "Notepad.exe" ).FirstOrDefault( );

or you could do what you do but use linq

Process element = ( from p in Process.GetProcesses()
                    where p.ProcessName == "Notepad.exe"
                    select p ).FirstOrDefault( );
