How to kill process if processname contains sting.

Question

This is my current code.

foreach (Process proc in Process.GetProcessesByName("ollydbg")){proc.Kill();}

How is it possible for me to kill all process that CONTAIN "olly" ...

So for example, contains "note" would kill notepad, notebook, notepad++, etc etc
Example 2, contains "olly" would kill, ollydbg, ollyplugin, etc etc.

In another words, I want to kill all processes IF what ever I specify, contains in process.name

Thanks guys.

Do something like below- foreach (Process proc in Process.GetProcessesByName("ollydbg")) { if(proc.ProcessName.StartsWith("olly")) proc.Kill(); }

You need to get all the processes running on the local machine and then kill the ones whose name contains "olly". So try this: foreach (Process proc in Process.GetProcesses() ) { if(proc.ProcessName.Contains("olly")) proc.Kill(); }

I just saw a glitch in my initial code.. Try this one - foreach (Process proc in Process.GetProcessesByName("olly")) { if(proc.ProcessName.StartsWith("olly")) proc.Kill(); }

Is it throwing an error or exception. What happens when you exceute the code. Try debugging and see all processnames that you're getting.
