What I wanted to say.

end process tree

but don't hold me responsible for what happens if you do this. 😉

 

[iamtrout]

End process tree doesn't work either.

 

[iamwiz82]

Get KILL.EXE for whatever OS you are running.

 

[dman]

You can try killing some other processes in the hopes that you get one that's locking the one you are trying to kill. Or try the kill prog listed above.

the one finger salute always worked.

I've used this program:

but it used to be available as free download...not it seems to require a subscription 🙁

no sh!t sherlock, can't you take a fvcking joke?

some folks...no sense of humor...whatsoever....

quite sad really

if you are running xp pro you can use tasklist to list the running processes and the taskkill to kill it. but if you are running home you are out of luck

 

[StageLeft]

Power cord.

 

[se7en]

Open TaskManager
Open the Command Line Prompt
Close Explorer.exe

That should kill most apps associated with windows so the program you want dead should be able to be killed. If that doesnt work use that mighty command line you have to nav to the directory and delete that sob.. ..

If still cant may need to kill a few more things off from tskmgr but explorer is normally the one responsible. And if it works can open explorer ack up just by typing explorer.exe into the mighty cmd line.

Yeah, this would be really helpful. Windows sucks! Well, XP hasn't been as bad as the older OSes I used, but still....

I'll check out the suggested programs. Thanks to those who gave the recommendations. 🙂

 

[FoBoT]

remove the power cord from the unit

 

[Insane3D]

I think the "throw a brick at it" option is best...

TASKILL YOU NOOBS.

edit: Tasklist for the PID.
