How to close 32 bit and 64 bit programs in C#

this code works to close 64 bit programs after i pick the program.
private void btnSleep_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
string processName = ExtractProcessName(ofdBrowse1.FileName);

foreach(Process p in Process.GetProcesses())
{
if(0 == String.Compare(processName, p.ProcessName, true))
{
p.CloseMainWindow();
}
}
}

private string ExtractProcessName(string fileName)
{
string processName = fileName;

int index = processName.LastIndexOf("\\");

if(-1 != index)
{
processName = processName.Substring(index + 1, processName.Length - index - 1);
}

processName = processName.ToUpper();
processName = processName.Replace(".EXE", "");

return processName;
}

How can I get this code to close both 32 bit and 64 bit programs?

This should work for 32bit programs too. It looks like you're navigating to the executable in your file system.

32 bit apps on a 64bit OS are normally stored in C:\Program Files (x86) instead of c:\Program Files

Does that help?

Have you tried it and it doesn't work, or are you just asking? Because it should work. You can only try to add call to Proces.Close().

I ran your program and closed both 64bit and 32bit Internet Explorer. I'm running 64bit Windows 7.

I can close windows media player (64) but but can't close blaze media pro(86)

Ok I seem to be able to close 32 bit programs that don't require me to say yes to start the program
