yes, but what parameters do i gve it?

Process.Kill() kills the process represented by the current Process
instance. Process instance for the running processes could be obtained using
Process.GetProcesses().

For TerminateProcess(), pass the Process.Handle (obtained using
GetProcesses()) and an exit code.

Hi iwdu15,

a few years ago i wrote a procedure in C to kill processes:
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "endprog.h"
void main()
{
kill("proc1.exe");
kill("proc2.exe");
#ifdef _DEBUG
printf("Press Enter >");
_getch();
#endif
}
void kill(char* fName)
{ DWORD dProcID=0;
HWND hWnd=0;
while (dProcID=FindProcessID(fName))
{
HANDLE hProcess = OpenProcess(PROCESS_TERMINATE, FALSE, dProcID);
#ifdef _DEBUG
printf("Process %x;PID %u \n",hProcess,dProcID);
#endif
if(hProcess)
TerminateProcess(hProcess,0);
#ifdef _DEBUG
printf("%s killed \n",fName);
#endif
}
}
DWORD FindProcessID(char* szProcessName)
{
DWORD aProcesses[1024], cbNeeded, cProcesses;
unsigned int i;
if(!EnumProcesses(aProcesses,sizeof(aProcesses),&c bNeeded)) return 0;
cProcesses = cbNeeded/sizeof(DWORD);
for(i=0;i<cProcesses;i++)
{
if (CompareProcessNameandID( aProcesses[i],szProcessName))
return aProcesses[i];
}
return 0;
}
BOOL CompareProcessNameandID(DWORD processID, char* szSearchName)
{
char szProcessName[MAX_PATH] = "unknown";
HANDLE hProcess = OpenProcess(PROCESS_QUERY_INFORMATION |
PROCESS_VM_READ, FALSE, processID);
if (hProcess)
{
HMODULE hMod;
DWORD cbNeeded;
if(EnumProcessModules(hProcess,&hMod,sizeof(hMod), &cbNeeded))
GetModuleBaseName(hProcess,hMod,szProcessName,size of(szProcessName));
}
CloseHandle(hProcess);
return !_stricmp(szProcessName,szSearchName);
}

May be helpfull
B.R.
