:top Title Killing ********.exe TASKKILL /F /T /IM ********.exe Title Killing ********.exe TASKKILL /F /T /IM ********.exe Title Killing *******.exe TASKKILL /F /T /IM *******.exe Title Killing **********.exe TASKKILL /F /T /IM **********.exe goto :top

This seems like a bad idea. Why not simply deal with the offending .EXE, instead of trying to kill it?

I have tried several other ways, however the most effective way is a batcfile, they are portable, dont require an install, and universal to most windows computers. The processes that i wish to end/kill are on several computers so portability is key.
