Killing the windows process using a simple batch file


To kill a process what we have to do  is to run this windows command  taskkill  /IM  /t /f

Where taskkill is the command to kill the process, /IM  is the image or process name, /t  to kill all the sub processes, and /f  to kill the process forcefully.

I am lazy to write all this in command prompt with Admin privileges  :)  That's why I have created a sample batch file where I just write the name of the process and it kills the process.

Create Batch File:

1. Open notepad and write this code


@ECHO OFF

set /p ProcessName= Enter Process Name To Kill: 

taskkill /IM "%ProcessName%" /t /f

2. Save this file as <any name>. bat . But don't save it as taskkill.bat

Execute batch file:
Double click to open this batch file and write the process name that you want to kill

exanple:

Enter Process Name To Kill : iexplore.exe
