closing all instances

[AmDeG 11]

the following script closes an instance of IrfanView

what should I do in order to close ALL IrfanView instances?

Code: Select all

#IfWinExist ahk_class IrfanView 
+^space:: WinClose ahk_exe i_view64.exe
#IfWinActive

Maybe like this:

Code: Select all

#IfWinExist ahk_class IrfanView 
+^space::
    Loop
	{
        if WinExist("ahk_exe i_view64.exe")
		{
            WinClose, ahk_exe i_view64.exe
			WinWaitClose, ahk_exe i_view64.exe
		}
		else
			break
		Sleep 100
    }
return
#IfWinActive

sorry it is not working

also at my original post I think I was wrong not closing the code with #IfWinExist

Remove WinWaitClose, ahk_exe i_view64.exe from what i posted and it should work.

Code: Select all

process=i_view64.exe
Process, Exist, %process%
if	pid :=	ErrorLevel
{
	Loop 
	{
		WinClose, ahk_pid %pid%, , 2	; will wait 2 sec for window to close
		if	ErrorLevel	; if it doesn't close
			Process, Close, %pid%	; force it 
		Process, Exist, %process%
	}	Until	!pid :=	ErrorLevel
}
return

^x::
ExitApp ;press ctrl-X to close the script, until you come up with your own way.

Hope this works for you.

Try this:

Code: Select all

+^Space::
    While WinExist("ahk_class IrfanView")
        WinClose
Return

I hope that helps.

@wolf_II

yours, works, thanks

However I would like to enclose +^Space just when Irfan is active

how should I tweak the script?

[wolf_II]

Try this:

Code: Select all

#IfWinActive, ahk_class IrfanView
+^Space::
    While WinExist("ahk_class IrfanView")
        WinClose
Return
#If ; off 
 

I hope that helps.

well I want to use it always except two exceptions but I cannot make it work with the two exceptions

Code: Select all

#If WinNotActive {"ahk_class AHK.ahk * SciTE4AutoHotkey"} or WinNotActive {"ahk_class TTOTAL_CMD"}
+^Space::
    While WinExist("ahk_class IrfanView")
        WinClose
Return
#If
