Kill a process (when it doesn't work with the task manager)
I got a java process that I'm unable to kill whith the task manager, I can select end task on the java process but it won't close.
Is there any way to force process killing using system command or else ..?
Thanks,
Ludax

In the Win32 API there are commands like TerminateProcess() which, given a process ID, can kill it. but when running a java applet you run the JVM. so you'd have to kill java.exe or javaw.exe I guess - I'm not a java programmer. if you wish I can give you Delphi sorucecode for killing a process given it's executable filename. just give me some points man! I have 5 points left! can't even ask a question.

You cannot ask questions with expert points - so it was pretty useless to lock this question with your "answer". The TaskManager uses nothing else but "TerminateProcess()", the problem is that it will not work for all processes without enabling "SeDebugPrivilege", which the program I suggested does.

If "PsKill" doesn't, "ProcessExplorer" will - see:

Why to use 3rd programs?
In Windows resource kit you'll find utilities such as
tlist.exe - to list current processes & PIDs
kill.exe - to kill a process - works even if Task manager cannot kill the process
