I only know the HWND as an input, first I use GetWindowThreadProcessId to get the process ID. But then how can I convert the process ID as the first input parameter of TerminateProcess which is HANDLE?
Thanks in advance!Code:DWORD dwProcessID = 0;
::GetWindowThreadProcessId(hWndGot, &dwProcessID);
Use OpenProcess function.
Did you read about using TerminateProcess in MSDN?Quote:

If the HWND you refer to is the handle of the main window - why not just PostMessage WM_CLOSE to it?
It's kind of you to remind me of closing the process in a 'clean' way. Because the HWND is not the main window of the process, so I have to use TerminateProcess.Quote:

Code:HANDLE hProcess = NULL;
hProcess = ::OpenProcess(0, 0, dwProcessID);
if (hProcess)
{
::TerminateProcess(hProcess, 0);
::CloseHandle(hProcess);
}
Not really. Given a window handle use GetWindowThreadProcessID to retrieve its processId. From there you can use the ModuleTest code in the following link to politely close the process.Quote:

Thanks for your quick reply.
But I can't find the ModuleTest in the link(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...22(VS.85).aspx). Sorry!
Yes, you can terminate process by this way, you need only to use PROCESS_TERMINATE as first OpenProcess parameter.
Sorry, my mistake. I've updated the link above.Quote:
