NCC10281982B Report post Posted July 8, 2015 At work we have a computer that is used to varify orders. Each time an others barcode is scanned a new instance of Firefox is opened displaying the order. Thus it is common to have many many Brower windows open. In the interest of house keeping I am trying to create a patch bile to close all instances of ff. I have the TSKILL part down but need a loop in the script. Thoughts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Waco Report post Posted July 9, 2015 On anything other than Windows this is a one liner. Loops are possible in Windows shell scripts but hell if I know how to do them and query the process list... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

El_Capitan Report post Posted July 13, 2015 Create a batch script, and just put this in there: :loop tasklist /fi "imagename eq firefox.exe" | find "firefox.exe" >nul && ( taskkill /im firefox.exe >nul & goto loop ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
