Help!!! How to kill a Process

Ming Zhang

10/16/2002 6:40:00 PM

Hi experts:
I wrote a C# program to kill a process by calling Process.Kill(). It works
fine when I debug it(press F5). It even works when I launch it from
DevStudio without debug(press Ctrl+F5). But when I run the exe directly, it
throws an exception say "Access Denied".
Any suggestion.

Thanks

My guess is that you're trying to kill a process that wasn't started under
your login. When starting the program from VS.NET it may be running under a
different login with elevated privileges which might explain why it works in
that situation and not the other.

Thanks for your reply.
This is want I guessed too. But how to change privilege in code? There are
must be a way since DevStudio can do it.
Appreciate for your help.

Thanks

I have no idea. In fact, I'm not even sure what I said was entirely
accurate. It was only a guess.

I think you may have to use TerminateProcess in the Win32API to shut down a
process in another logon session. To use it you'll need a handle to the
process - not sure whether you can get it out of the Process class.
