can anyone help me close a program window that open up after it installs.

The folder is a folder from the start menu ( C:\Documents and Settings\All UsersStart Menu\Programs\"programnamehere)

I tried using taskkill but for some odd reason it doesn't work for me. Any suggestions.

thanks in advance

-c-

i use this "start taskkill.exe /F /IM" to kill my winamp registration during installation...

you mite wanna try " start taskkill.exe /F /IM c:\docs...\progs\progA* "

and it mite also help if u'd let us know what program ur tryin to kill.

He already said he wanted to close a folder... The problem is that you can't use taskkill here, because explorer windows are part of explorer.exe (correct me if I'm wrong, I couldn't get it to work, but that could just be me ), so killing that would kill your whole shell.

You can get autoit3 and create a script.

Insert:

Waitwait("Your window title", "")
Winclose("Your window title")

Compile this into an executable and run it instead of taskkill.
