Tsunami Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 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.
MHz Posted November 15, 2004 Posted November 15, 2004 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.
