taskkill: Terminate a process on a remote machine.
$ taskkill /pid ${process_id} /s ${remote_name}
try on your machine
The command "taskkill /pid ${process_id} /s ${remote_name}" is used in Windows to terminate or kill a specific process running on a remote machine using its process ID (PID).
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "taskkill" is the command-line utility used to terminate or kill a process in Windows.
- "/pid" is an option that specifies that the process ID (PID) of the process you want to terminate will be provided.
- "${process_id}" is a variable placeholder that should be replaced with the actual process ID of the process you want to terminate.
- "/s" is an option specifying that the command should be executed on a remote machine.
- "${remote_name}" is a variable placeholder that should be replaced with the name or IP address of the remote machine on which the process needs to be terminated.
So, by executing this command with the appropriate process ID and remote machine name, you can remotely terminate a specific process running on the remote machine.
