Hello Shan,

I am also experiencing the problem with chrome. I provided the process name as "chrome" and username as "Administrator" but it is not working.

The same method is working for other applications.

Thanks

Hello Shan,

When I try to kill my Chrome by using process name "chrome", it doesn't work for most of times. And I'm wondering if you can tell me why.

Thanks

Hello Shan,

I trying to kill Internet Explorer process (iexplore), but I don't have success.

The return message is "Process name or Username is not correct. Process name must be same as shown in the windows task manager, and username must be same as shown in the windows user management", but if I change the process to EXCEL the activity is working verry well.

Do you have any idea?
