Simple program to kill a program


Recommended Posts

Here is a loop that will check every 5 seconds if a executable is running, then kill it if found:

:loop
set "name=the name of your executable"
tasklist /FI "IMAGENAME eq %name%" 2>NUL | find /I /N "%name%">NUL
if "%ERRORLEVEL%"=="0" (
    taskkill /IM %name% /f
    TIMEOUT 5
    goto :loop

You cand adjust the time.

 

You can also use PsKill instead of taskkill:
