    Thanks Slavisa, I tried it. but it does nothing i donno why.. Could u please help me further with my code below: (I want to close the console that created within 3 seconds but it is not moving into that if part (bold)) CreateProcess(_T("\\windows\\iesample.exe"),imFullPath, NULL, NULL, FALSE, CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE, NULL, NULL, NULL, &processInfo1); Sleep(3000); EnumWindows(&EnumProc,processInfo1.dwProcessId); BOOL CALLBACK EnumProc(HWND hwnd, LPARAM param) { DWORD id = GetWindowThreadProcessId(hwnd, NULL); if (id == (DWORD)param) { DestroyWindow(hwnd); return false; } return true; }

    I think it is better to send WM_CLOSE to the window instead of calling DestroyWindow().

      The return value of GetWindowThreadProcessId is the thread Id and not the process Id. If you want the process Id, use the second parameter like so.

      DWORD dwProcessId = 0;
      GetWindowThreadProcessId(hwnd, &dwProcessId);
      if (dwProcessId == (DWORD)param)

        I suspect you've to use EnumThreadWindows [^], passing, as dwThreadId argument, the dwThreadId member of the PROCESS_INFORMATION struct filled by CreateProcess function. It's just a guess: the test is up to you. :)

          Well, since you just want to close the program you could use TerminateProcess(hProcess, 0);

              A hammer is another option. :)
