RunWait ProcessWaitClose issues

[youtuber]

My friends want to run an exe file and then close it, but the program does not shut down.

$aOpenFiles = FileOpenDialog("", @ProgramFilesDir & "\", "Exe File (*.exe)", 3)
If @error Then
    ConsoleWrite("No select" & @CRLF)
Else
ConsoleWrite("Ok. select" & @CRLF)
EndIf

$RunCount = 2

For $i = 1 To $RunCount
$aRunw = RunWait($aOpenFiles)
Sleep(500)
ProcessWaitClose($aRunw)
Sleep(100)
Next

RunWait returns the exit code, not the PID.  You just need that on it's own, without the sleeps or ProcessWaitClose...or change RunWait to Run.  Some processes also spawn additional processes, so you might have to get, and then wait, for that PID, but that's probably not the case here.

Better thanks

$aOpenFiles = FileOpenDialog("", @DesktopDir & "\", "Exe File (*.exe)", 3)
If @error Then
    ConsoleWrite("No select" & @CRLF)
Else
ConsoleWrite("Ok. select" & @CRLF)
EndIf

$RunCount = 2

For $i = 1 To $RunCount
$aRunw = Run($aOpenFiles)
$aProgressClose = ProcessWait($aRunw)
Sleep(5000)
$aProgressClose2 = ProcessClose($aProgressClose)
Next
