Sometimes you want to have applications closed before other actions can start. Think about an install or uninstall that can only take place if certain applications are not running. With this script, you can close these applications. You can run the script silently or with user interaction. Whatever you prefer.
This script is also multilingual. The default language is English, but German, Dutch, French, Spanish and Indonesian are also supported. The GUI is in that language, the log file is in the English language. For translation, the file 'translations.json' is used.
You can enable logging. If the script is run with admin rights, the logpath is set to %WINDIR%\System32\Logfiles. Otherwise, it is the users' %TEMP% folder.
Some background information
The script detects the currently logged-on user by who is the owner of the 'explorer.exe' process. That is also the case for the SID. Finally, the user name from the user who is running the script is detected.
The language is stored in two locations:
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop - > Value PreferredUILanguages
- HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Control Panel\Desktop\MuiCached -> Value MachinePreferredUILanguages
But, if running with admin rights, the HKEY_CURRENT_USER must be translated to HKEY_USERS\<SID>. That is why the SID is needed. To keep things simple, I always use this technique, admin rights or not.
For the layout, I used a form. The form has been created with PowerShell Studio 2020. It was very easy to modify the layout.
