How to kill process using C#?

[DarkSorrow38]

My computer is affected by a virus 'regsvr.exe' which slows down the machine by eating proccessors time. I have to explicitly kill it from the process tab in the task manager. For this reason i want to create a executiable that would kill its process. Also specify how to put my executiable in the startup menu.

Why not just clean the virus off your machine? :rolleyes: and remember to practice safe computing in the future.

I would rather use a anti virus to do this.

You can use this:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("tskill", "regsvr");<

But it much beter to use anti-virus to remove the virus or any other viruses.

I don't have a anti-virus software installed currently and the virus is not letting the anti-virus software install one.

Well this will do the job then:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("tskill", "regsvr");

Hi, // you can kill process by PID Process p= Process.GetProcessById(PID); p.Kill();
