close process or program - (Locked)

[HermanCegel]

hello, my simple script is close program calculator

 

processclose('calc.exe')

 

i have question, what if i rename filename calc.exe to calc2.exe

is there a way to close calc2.exe without writing again processclose('calc2.exe')

 

thanks

Maybe something like:

_CloseCalc()
Func _CloseCalc()
    Local $aProcesses = ProcessList()
    For $i = 1 To $aProcesses[0][0]
        If StringLeft($aProcesses[$i][0], 4) = "Calc" And StringRight($aProcesses[$i][0], 4) = ".exe" Then
            MsgBox(4096, "", $aProcesses[$i][0])
            ;~ ProcessClose($aProcesses[$i][0])
        EndIf
;~      RegExp method
;~      If StringRegExp($aProcesses[$i][0], '(^Calc).*(.exe$)') Then
;~          MsgBox(4096, "", $aProcesses[$i][0])
;~          ;~ ProcessClose($aProcesses[$i][0])
;~      EndIf

    Next
EndFunc

Now you really need to explain what it is you are doing as this isn't really making any sense why this ever should happen!

What what are you really trying to do here?

ok,  i want to protect my program from memory editor  like cheatengine.exe

 

so i use processclose('cheatengine.exe')

 

the problem is,  when they change cheatengine.exe to blablabla.exe,  i cannot close it

[HermanCegel]

i even use

 

if winexists("cheat engine") then winclose("cheat engine")

 

but the problem is they can change wintitle to random name
