Hi
How do I write a batch or script file to stop a process, instead of opening Task Manger and stoping the process manually.
I need the process to start up, but don,t need it running all the time.
Thanks

Windows NT/2000 (and derived) don't have a command line program to kill processes; use something like pskill (http://www.sysinternals.com/files/pskill.zip) to terminate the process. Type pskill -? to view it's options.

Hi Bassman
I don't seem to have this command in WinXP Pro.
Thanks

Click the link and download the program. It's not an inbred feature of 2000/XP.
