How kill a process launching with a .bat file by ShellExecuteex ?

Asked by Develprog in Windows MFC Programming, Editors IDEs

Hi,

Trying to use SHELLEXECUTEINFO struct and ShellExecuteEx function to launch a process, I want to kill it after when some conditions is ok. This process pings an ip address and I want to quit this process ( .bat file) when the ping response is ok.

My problem is that I can't terminate this started process. Could you give me a way to terminate, kill this process. ( See my code below)

Thank you
