Script to start and stop programs

[A[L]C]

Hi all,

Looking for a script to start and stop programs in vista 64.

Ive tried this in a batch file:

taskkill /im xblist.exe /f
taskkill /im msnmsgr.exe /f

"C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Realtime Soft\UltraMon\3.0.3\Profiles\Plasma Only.umprofile"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\MediaPortal.exe"


The programs launch fine, but xblist and messenger are not killed.

Any ideas?

Thanks

I would suggest you download and try a tool called "pskill". It's part of a package called pstools. It might work better
