Using C#, do you know of a way to stop cmd.exe after it has been started to run a batch file with parameters using ProcessStartInfo()in the Process Class? Process.Kill() and Process.Close() does not help.
Set the ProcessStartInfo.UseShellExecute to false. You can completely control the process and its output now. Using Process.Kill will now terminate the application.
