Hey T, 

I started trying to set up a few new user commands that will close other applications and it doesn't seem to be working in the latest release.  I am trying to close simple exe's compiled with AHK.

I need a little more info so I can look into this.
PCC Should close a executable program if it is listed in the task manager.

The exe files you created with AHK are scripts.
If this script starts say notepad then opens IE for example.
You need to tell PCC to close notepad and IE, closing the AHK.exe file won't do that.
Closing a AHK exe file only will close that script not what was activated with it.

I am trying to close the AHK.EXE file and it is no working.  Itguy helped me create a simple AHK script that will trigger an event in HS that has PCC speak a reminder every (X) minutes based on milliseconds.  So what I am trying to accomplish is when a light switch is turned on for instance the basement. (that is out of sight)  every 30 minutes PCC will remind me that the basement light is on.  but when I turn the switch off I want PCC to close the script because it loops continuously until it is closed.

You may need to do this with AHK and have PCC trip the stop script.
Can you stop the script with windows task manager?

I am able to stop the script in the task manager but not in PCC

Ok digging into this a little more it seems some applications just can't be closed with VB.net
I'm able to close some applications but not others.
It looks like creating a AHK script exe to do this maybe the only route for this at the moment.
However I'll continue to look into this to see why some apps will close while others won't.

Thanks for looking into is T,

Itguy is also looking on his end as he is the one that wrote the original AHK script
