IDEA: kill specified programs "harshly/silently" at shutdown
jgpaiva:
I wonder which parameter the shutdown is "sorted" by... probably just the order processes appear in a ToolHelp32 snapshot, which is probably based on the PID?

If so, the program only needs to be started before the anoying processes to solve the problem.
jgpaiva:
Ok, i just confirmed that it is somehow related to the PID of the processes. I launched 3 test programs sequentially and they were closed by the same order i started them.
f0dder:
PIDs aren't necessarily delegated sequentially...
Stoic Joker:
Ok, I realize the point of the exercise is to code a small utility that does something, But... for a wifi tray tool I can't help but think there's a reason it's having trouble unloading. I've resolved issues like this using BootVis (a free MS utility) several times in the past.
(My "day job" is network administrator/engineer for a local IT company.)
Sorry just had to ask, carry on...
f0dder:
Hm, bootvis? I thought it only traced bootup, not shutdown?
