Stop running program?

[NewsArchive]

Does anyone know if theres any facilities in SB to stop a running program?
Its not a service just a normal hidden windowed app which is called from the
HKLM Run reg key.

TIA.

Just seen the Terminate Active Application in the script function yet
couldnt find "Stop Running program" in the help.

Got a question, what exactly is "Gently Close Application [in] Mark this
checkbox to gently close the application. "

Does this PostMessage with WM_Query End Session or WM_End Session to
the running app or something else?

TIA

The "Gently Close" option posts WM_CLOSE to all windows whose PID matches
your process's and then waits (for max. 5 seconds) on the handle. The app
can then handle all the required shutdown actions.
