Please someone test 5.2 or 5.3 with a large config.

I think that's why I did it my way, the dos screen is mutch shorter.

I can change it back with cmd /c so wpi does the command.

Do that after my problem is solved. :lol:

That wil also be after my vacation.............

Ok, I made a little exe you have to put on your cd or in your windows.

It accepts only one command-line parameter and that is a process name that should kill.

The AutoIT code

#include "process.au3"
If $cmdline[0] = 1 Then
_RunDOS('taskkill /im "' & $cmdline[1] & '" /f')
EndIf

Not that complicated, right? :w00t:

Usage

TaskKillS program.exe

I'll upload only the compiled version.

Link

Edit: I forgot to say it displays no splash screen at all.

Kel & sadicq, please note that taskkill is only for XP Pro.

XP home has a tskill instead.

I'd reckon to use AutoIt's ad hoc function which will work in any case (see the AutoIt help file for the 'ProcessClose' function):

If $cmdline[0] Then ProcessClose($cmdline[1])

Compile it with the same name and use it the same way.

I know that function. It oftenly fails to close some processes which are not responding or are using much cpu power. So, long story short, processclose is not an option.

I'll look into this later, and I'll consider rewriting that in vb .net as I'm trying to learn it right now.

Or I'll attach the original takkill to the exe and extract it when needed.

Anyway, I wrote that just to show you how easy it is to hide it ... so it's not vital for the non-XP users.

Yes, autoIt used to have problems with delays on heavy loads sometimes.

What about a loop forcing it?

If $cmdline[0] Then
While ProcessExists($cmdline[1])
ProcessClose($cmdline[1])
WEnd
EndIf

Anyway, I was just mentioning this as Kel is looking for 'universal' solutions: we don't want bug reports saying TaskKillS is not working on some machine ;) .

If you prefer to stick to the attached exe and fear an issue with the licence, maybe Process.exe (25Kb, freeware) from Beyonlogic is a good choice...
