TerminateProcess help

Hi,

My code:

Code:

// error checking removed

// varibles
	HWND hWndNews;
	DWORD dwPid, error;
	HANDLE hNews;

// process closed
        hWndNews = FindWindow(NULL, "4.32 - Build: 4969");
	dwPid = GetWindowThreadProcessId(hWndNews, NULL);
	hNews = OpenProcess(PROCESS_ALL_ACCESS, FALSE, dwPid);
	TerminateProcess(hNews, 0);
	CloseHandle(hNews);

I am trying to terminate another application (MFC), by getting the handle, opening a process and terminating it. I have tried sending messages to the window but it dosnt work (WM_CLOSE/WM_DESTROY).

The handle is correct, although the dwPid contains 740 and spy++ says its 000007D0.

Anyone know how i can fix this/close the program?

Thanks alot,
Jack

Are you sure the thread you are running has PROCESS_TERMINATE rights? What does TerminateProcess return? If false, what does GetLastError return?

Make sure the handle to the process is valid. The same applies to all other handles.
