muzza4 0 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Hi AllI have a script that allows me to set the browser I want to use, closes all instances of that browser, then runs the website in that browsers.Closing all instances of the browser uses this code (using Firefox as an example)...$Process = 'firefox.exe'Do $Again = 'No' $PID = ProcessExists($Process) If $PID > 0 Then ProcessClose($PID) $Again = 'Yes' EndIfUntil $Again = 'No'It works fine for many browsers including IE11, but it doesn't for Edge. The $Process value I am using is "Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe" since this is what Task Manager has as its name in Properties.Any ideas on why it doesn't work?ThanksMuzza Link to post Share on other sites
BrewManNH 1,310 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 "Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbwe" is the folder name that Edge is in, not the program that is used to run it. Use "MicrosoftEdge.exe" as the process name. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.
