Use the System.Diagnostics.Process class along with a List. You can start new processes using the Process.Start method and store the returned components in the list. Now when your application exits, call the Process.Kill method for all the elements in your list.
BTW, you're working for some company?

I tried adding in the list obj which i created but its not adding anything

Could you post the code?
Btw you cannot add sth to the process list, it is read-only.

Hello SeMartens,
I'm not talking about adding something to the process list, but to an instance of the
List class. Like the following code:
namespace ConsoleApplication1
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
List<Process> list = new List<Process>();
string input="";
Console.WriteLine("Enter path to a program to start it.");
while (true)
{
input = Console.ReadLine();
if (input == "exit")
break;
try
{
list.Add(Process.Start(input));
}
catch
{
Console.WriteLine("Failed to start " + input);
}
}
foreach (Process process in list)
{
if (!process.HasExited)
process.Kill();
}
}
}
}

ok..
see am giving like this..
System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo psi = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(@"Notepad");
System.Diagnostics.Process listFiles;
listFiles = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(psi);
listFiles.Kill();
here what is happening is it is opening a new notepad and closing that
but i need to close the application which is already opened...
ex:- i have opend 3 browsers and 1 notepad already opened in my system...now am running my application.now if i close my application these 3 browser and 1 notepad also should get closed...
thats what am asking how can i add these already opened things in to my list?

Hi,
first you could use
System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcesses();
to enumerate all running processes. But closing them could be difficult because you have to distinguish between system processes and application processes. A better way is to get all top-level applications (like the task-manager) and close them. Have a look at this link http://www.neowin.net/forum/lofiversion/index.php/t369213.html[^].
Regards
Sebastian

{
Process[] processes = Process.GetProcessesByName("notepad");
foreach (Process process in processes)
{
process.Kill();
}
}

Use Process.GetProcessByName().
Or If you want to play it more safely, use Process.GetProcessById() method. To obtain the PIDs for the processes you want to end, get a list of all the processes running on your system using Process.GetProcesses(). Then manually traverse the list and find the PID of the processes you want to end, and then end them from there.
[Edit]Have a look at the process class and find out what it can do.[^][/Edit]
BTW, please answer this time, what are you building, and do you work for some company?
Excuse me for buttin' in, but I'm interrupt driven.

Hi,
what you could do is to monitor all the processes started while your app is running (look at the System.Diagnostics-namespace). If your app closes you can send a close to all the processes (or just do a hard "end process").

can u just send me example codes?

Now its working fine....
now everything is getting closed..but am getting the shutdown window also after giving this code
Process[] processlist = Process.GetProcesses("Avinash");
foreach (Process theprocess in processlist)
{
theprocess.CloseMainWindow();
}
i dont want to get that shutdown window...?
|

Hi Sandhya,
The reason you're getting that shutdown window is that the GetProcesses method gets a list of all running processes on the local computer or the machine name specified as an argument, and this list includes explorer as well. So when you call CloseMainWindow(), the close signal is being sent to all running programs including explorer as well. You should do like given below:
Process[] processlist = Process.GetProcessesByName("Notepad");
foreach (Process theprocess in processlist)
{
theprocess.CloseMainWindow();
}
All the best
Excuse me for buttin' in, but I'm interrupt driven.

In this case only notepad had got closed and rest others are there only..
(Explorer,MyComputer.,etc...)

Do you have a yahoo id. If yes, send me an Add Request at ankit_incredible_2006. The problem can be solved more quickly if we have a realtime comm. link.

All right, try like this
void CloseApplications(void)
{
string explorerPath = Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Environment.SystemDirectory);
explorerPath = Path.Combine(explorerPath.ToLower(), "explorer.exe");
Process[] processes = Process.GetProcesses();
foreach(Process process in processes)
{
try
{
if (process.MainModule.FileName.ToLower() != explorerPath)
process.CloseMainWindow();
}
catch
{
}
}
}

Hello Friends,
I am having one application in Vb6 and I wanna read one image file and want to copy it at other location.
Now when I am running my VB6 application its working fine,
But when running C# application its giving me error.
So is there any difference between VB3 and C# file handling ?
Thanks,
Sun Rays

First decide whether you are working on VB6 or VB3. And yes there's a lot of difference between file handling in C# and VB (any version that doesn't use .Net framework).
