Hello
I have a problem with Process, WaitClose.
The process is not killed within 5 seconds, why?


Code:
Run,  "%comspec% /c test.txt , , min, NEWPID
msgbox %NEWPID%
Process, WaitClose, %NewPID%, 5


msgbox : cmd.exe but test.exe isn't kill


Code:
Run, test.exe, , , NEWPID
msgbox %NEWPID%
Process, WaitClose, %NewPID%, 5


test.exe isn't kill

Process syntax

Thank for you help.

Example #2 suggest that WaitClose doesn't close and wait - you have to use WinClose (on a window) or Process,Close to make the actual kill and then Process,WaitClose to check whether it did close.

Hello,

Process,Close doesn't work too

i'll try winclose

winclose suggests that I know the name of the window but this is not the case.
it can be anything

but I am still trying

MY Program.exe is a batch convert to exe (with bat2exe converter) (run cmd.exe)

It creates temporary files but remove them as soon as you close the window with the red cross
