Hi, I have a question.
Is there any advantage or a good reason to use _ProcessTerminate with $iExitCode ?

What exactly does it mean if I terminate process with $iExitCode ?

I did not found about this information on the Internet.

What are the advantages in using _ProcessTerminate Instead of ProcessClose ?

Link to _ProcessTerminate

EDIT:

Never mind, thought this was in GHAS for some reason.

ProcessClose() calls TerminateProcess() API internally.

TerminateProcess() needs a process handle and an exit code.

When you call ProcessClose(), at least three APIs are called: OpenProcess(), TerminateProcess() and CloseHandle().

The exit code of a process could be retrieved using GetExitCodeProcess().

The exit code of a process comes from three places: first parameter of ExitProcess(), second parameter of TerminateProcess() and return value of the entry point (int main(...) function in C/C++ etc).

Thank you.

This information useful.

So it is better for me to use TerminateProcess In cases when I already opened handle..
