I run a compiled ahk script on W7 with admin privileges.

The main reason to do so is to kill some service which hangs from time to time. I first try to "stop service" politely. Sometimes it works, but sometimes it eats 100% of its cpu core and reports "stopping..." state. It can go on forever.
In this case I just need to kill the bastard which I do with something like this


To my suprise it simply reports "not closed" no matter how many times I call it. Again I try to kill a service by a script admin privileges. The same action completes with success via windows task manager.

What am I missing ?
