>                 Key: NIFI-11542
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-11542
>             Project: Apache NiFi
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 1.21.0
>         Environment: Windows
>            Reporter: Paul Kelly
>            Priority: Major

> Process detection and termination in 
> nifi-bootstrap/src/main/java/org/apache/nifi/bootstrap/RunNiFi.java rely on 
> running system commands ({{{}ps{}}} and {{{}kill{}}}) to determine if a 
> process is alive and to terminate lingering processes.  The commands used do 
> not exist on Windows.  Therefore, isProcessRunning always returns false and 
> killing lingering processes also fails.  This can lead to the java.exe 
> process sticking around after NiFi is stopped.
> Once Java 11 is the minimum, Java's ProcessHandle could be used instead of 
> running system commands, which would allow process detection and termination 
> to work on Windows the same way it does on other operating systems.  Until 
> then, OS detection could be used to run Windows commands on Windows and POSIX 
> commands on everything else.  For example, {{tasklist}} and {{taskkill}} 
> could be used.
