Is there any script or program out for anything (not just samurize) that when you click it, it will kill a specified process?
[help] Script/program To Kill A Process
i think you can write batch files to do this.
if you can learn how to write them, they're simple tho, a command script can
Ok I figured out the console command to kill a process by name.
Is there any way I can just make a script out of that or an exe?
A little variation on Judge's KillClient function included in the original DesktopWeatherXML. Change the variable 'strProcess' to whatever you want terminated.
Dim strProcess
strProcess = "Client.exe" 'Change this to whatever executable you want
KillClient(strProcess)
Function KillClient(vProcess)
Dim objWMIService, colProcessList, objProcess, PID
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\.\root\cimv2")
Set colProcessList = objWMIService.ExecQuery("select * from Win32_Process where CommandLine LIKE '%" & vProcess & "%'")
For Each objProcess in colProcessList
PID = objProcess.ProcessID
killPID(PID)
Next
End Function
Function killPID(PID)
Dim WshShell
Set WshShell = CreateObject("wscript.shell")
WshShell.run "taskkill /PID " & PID, 0
End Function
BTW, for those that aren't running XP Pro you'll need the taskkill.exe file in your system32 folder ![]()
man you are the VBS master! Thanks a bunch once again!
EDIT
It doesnt seem to work too well, it kills samurize as well as lots of other processes. I really need a thing so I can click where the script is on the config and it will execute the console command:
killtask/IM itunes.exe. Just a little exe or something...
@juno
just change the second line of this vbs from:
strProcess = "Client.exe"
To:
strProcess = "itunes.exe"
and instead of closing samurize it will close itunes.
Im an idiot, I changed all the str things manually..oh well sometimes things are too easy.
