Ending a program

[th3w1zard1]

Is there a way to end a program with batch? Like if I wanted a batch program to stop Windows Media Player, is this possible?

that is very easy i think taskkill will kill the process of the program

example

Code: Select all

taskkill /F /IM wmplayer.exe

this code will end all media player instance

taskill will not work for certain process every time. Sometimes it will fail.
You can also use wmic

Code: Select all

wmic process where name="services.exe" call terminate
