Remote processclose

[ksmith247]

I am trying to avoid using pskill if possible. I need to kill a process on a remote machine. Can I do that with AutoIt code only?

Try this Converted VB WMI example.

Local $objWMIService, $objProcess, $colProcess, $strComputer, $strProcessKill 
$strComputer = ".";replace with remote computer
$strProcessKill = "'calc.exe'" 

$objWMIService = Objget("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" _ 
& $strComputer & "\root\cimv2") 

$colProcess = $objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_Process Where Name = " & $strProcessKill )
For $objProcess in $colProcess
$objProcess.Terminate()
Next

Thanks. Works like a charm. Going from shell scripts straight to AutoIt, I tend to forget about Vb.

Welcome.

Nice editing Larry!!!

I like WMI

#include <Array.au3>
Local $objWMIService, $objProcess, $colProcess, $strComputer, $strProcessKill
Local $procs
$strComputer = ".";replace with remote computer

$objLoc = ObjCreate("wbemscripting.swbemlocator")
$objLoc.Security_.privileges.addasstring("sedebugprivilege", true)

$objWMIService = Objget("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" _
& $strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
$colProcess = $objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_Process" )
For $objProcess in $colProcess
    ConsoleWrite($objProcess.CommandLine&@LF)
Next

Get process list and COMMAND LINE of all running processes on remote compy

I only know of 1 program that will get you the command line arguments, ProcExp by sysinternals.

I was able to get this to work in my script with a small modification but I am now trying somethign a little different. If I use the above code and hard code $strProcessKill, it works. I want to now use an inputbox to allow the user to supply the process to kill. I thouht I was really on the road to success but the below code doesnt work. I dont get an error but the process never dies. What am I missing here?

$process = InputBox("Prosess Name", "Enter the process[ÝHÚÚÈÝÜ    ][ÝÊBÌÍÜÝØÙÜÒÚ[HÕRPÝXY
    ÌÍÜØÙÜÊB33c¶ö&¥tÔ6W'f6RÒö&¤vWBgV÷C·væÖv×G3¢gV÷C²ð fײgV÷C·¶×W'6öÑ¥½¹1Ù°õ¥µÁÉͽ¹ÑôÌÌìÀäÈìÀäÈìÅÕ½Ðì|($$µÀìÀÌØíI%¹ÁÕÐmp; "\root\cimv2")

[Zacharot]

$strComputer = InputBox("Computer name", "Enter the computer's name")
$strProcessKill = InputBox("Prosess Name", "Enter the process you wish to stop")
$strProcessKill="'"&$strProcessKill&"'" <----- NEEDED THIS BIT

$objWMIService = Objget("winmgmts:" _
& "{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" _
& $strComputer & "\root\cimv2")

$colProcess = $objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_Process Where Name = " & $strProcessKill )
For $objProcess in $colProcess
$objProcess.Terminate()
Next

Thanks for the help. I think I see why. I'll be a process killing fool come Monday.
