Exiting a .exe

[JBD2]

Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to make shutdown a .exe that is running on the computer other than using Task Manager. Thanks for the help.

Well, for starters have a look at this thread, it contains a code that will close a window (Assuming you know part of its title).

Other than that can you be more specific about what exactly it is you want to close?

Cheers,

Do a Search on the forum for "TerminateEXE". There is code available for shutting down a running application just by knowing the filename (exe name)

Here are at least three threads with the code that I found right away:
