prathapml Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 jquintino, taskkill.exe is not present in XP home or Win2k.You can use this alternative (much better too) - pskill.Usage:pskill PDFReader.exeEnsure you have pskill.exe in "$OEM$\$$\System32\" on your CD, to be able to use it from command-line.Hoping this helps...

MCT Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 2 complicated just to kill a task lolpskill rocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Zugec Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Well, the point is if U R familiar with this syntax, U can work with almost everything (that have WMI providers) - HW, SW, processes, user accounts, services, OS etc... For me it is faster to use wmic command than to remember another syntax. And WMIC is in every XP, so no need for external commands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totoymola Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 soulin, I didn't know that command. Could you explain to me what it does? I tried WMIC /? and got nothing. I want to know the switches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Zugec Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 Wmic /? should provide U with switches U can use almost everything, from HW to SW, processes, services... Every WMI class... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
totoymola Posted January 17, 2005 Share Posted January 17, 2005 I get it now. First, I typed wmic so I got this prompt.wmic:root\cli>Then I typed wmic /? from there. That's why I didn't get the list of switches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
