ok it comes back and says they are terminated, however, task manager still shows all of the ones killed still in memory. I am REAL tired of constantly rebooting. In all my 20+ tech years I have never seen so many problems, but since there are a vast array of things going on all the time, it is no wonder. MS has to work on REAL solutions with the understanding they have to consider many different programs interacting with the OS at the same time. It is a big challenge they need to work on more than Bing or any other thing, because exponentially more programs will come up each day wanting to work with Windows.

Taskkill uses WMI API to search process by name. Enable Windows Management Instrumentation (winmgmt) to use /IM.

"gt: greater than or equal le: less than or equal"

This is incorrect. "ge" is greater than or equal.

I prefer using Daphne which has it's own command line tool for listing and killing processes.

anyone know which service is associated with this? I get the following reply when I run this from the cmd line:
TASKKILL /F/ IM DTFMON.EXE

"ERROR: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it."

Check for hardware or memory faults. If there are hardware issues then it will slowly corrupt your OS in odd ways eventually causing it to crash more often.

Also check for driver issues/conflicts. If a device keeps making hardware interrupt calls it will force the system to respond but if the driver is not going to respond properly it may freeze or just take forever to come back.

and this is a little off the topic of discussion ... but it is a windows general question. i've had my laptop for approx. two years now, and since purchase i've had a random freezing problem. i've reformatted the hd several times, and it certainly does improve after the format, but soon begins to reoccur. anyone have any suggestions about this?
thanks. will

old thread, I know, but I'm trying to kill processes that nothing will kill. Not task manager, taskkill nor pskill as listed above from sysinternals. pskill in fact, is even worse than taskkill as taskkill reports an error when trying to kill the tasks while pskill incorrectly reports it is successful.

Anyone know of any other "more potent" ways to kill a task?
