too many processes, no longer a gwm32 or speech32.exe file.

Too many choices (grin)! Does anyone know the relative merits of
using tskill versus taskkill? Both are available on XP Pro and
Walt's post indicates that tskill is available on XP Home.

Subject: kill nonresponsive WE
Kill Window-Eyes when it is not responding:
Several listers have asked me how to use taskkill.exe. I learned
this from someone who posted to the list previously about this
subject. It has helped me a lot and I hope it helps you also.
Here are instructions for using taskkill.exe to close a
non-responsive version of Window-Eyes with XP Pro.
First create a batch file with the following lines:
Note that batch files end with a .bat extension and must be plain
text files. You can save this way with your word processor or to be
sure use notepad.
@echo off
rem close window-eyes and all its parts
rem works with windows xp professional
taskkill.exe /im wineyes.exe /f
taskkill.exe /im gwm32.exe /f
taskkill.exe /im speech32.exe /f
taskkill.exe /im bdisplay.exe /f
Save this file in the
c:\windows\system32
directory with a name like
kill-we.bat
The name must end with the .bat extension.
The file Taskkill.exe should be in this directory.
Next create a shortcut on the desktop
called kill we
When prompted for the path to the program enter
c:\windows\system32\kill-we.bat
When prompted for the shortcut to execute this program, enter
shift-alt-control-w
After this is all set up, test it before you have a problem.
This should remove Window-eyes and all its parts from memory.
After using kill we, you may need to re-start Window-eyes and shut
it down properly with alt-f4 and then restart Window-eyes again;
however, with 6.1 and later, this may not be necessary.
I hope this helps.
(below from netbat)
the file name and the commands are different between xp home and xp pro.
both are in the c:\windows\system32 folder
the file name for xp home is tskill.exe
these are the commands that you would put in the .bat file for xp home only.
tskill wineyes /a
tskill gwm32 /a
tskill speech32 /a
tskill bdisplay /a
tskill explorer /a
Note that with WE70 the lines to kill speech32 and gwm32 are not
needed since these have been made internal processes by Window-Eyes.
