Windows XP Pro--- I have an issue svchost tying up computer and making it run slowly-- is it possible to create a VBscript/batch file that would restart ot kill the svchost.exe pid:1100 from a shortcut on the desktop? &nbsp;Can someone provide an example or a place to find such a script. &nbsp;Going through task manager to end task is a PIA and is too complicated for the User.<br />
Thanks

VB script or batch file needed

Batch files are text files containing a script of commands that are executed by the command interpreter on DOS, OS/2 and Windows systems. Most commonly, they are used to perform a series of functions that are repeated -- copying a set of files created daily with one step, for example.

Windows Batch

Programming includes both the specifics of the language you’re using, like Visual Basic, .NET, Java and others, but also the best practices in user experience and interfaces and the management of projects, version control and development. Other programming topics are related to web and cloud development and system and hardware programming.

Programming

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
