    Kill Windows Processes In Windows 8

    You can gracefully stop Windows processes using the Stop-Process command let. For example, to stop Chrome: Stop-Process -Name Chrome Or to stop it by ID. To locate the ID of a process, use get-process: get-process Chrome You can then use the -ID operator to stop the process: Stop-Process -ID 6969 Kill is a command that all Mac and Unix admins know. It’s similar to Stop-Process, except it’s anything but graceful. And you use the -processname option to stop a process: kill -processname calc
