UiPath - Kill Process for Current user |
Kill Process activity in UiPath terminates a specified process from the machine/server.
This activity kill process for every user session, and this would create problem for other users working on the server. This would also create problem to work with High Density Robots features of UiPath.
In order to avoid these issues and for good practice in development, we should kill process for current user only on machine/server.
Below is the uipath code to kill process for current user.
Step 1 – Take a variable/argument (string array) contains the process names needed to be killed.
in_ProcessArrayToKill = New String(){"excel", "iexplore"}
![]() |
Initialize String Array with Process names to be killed |
Step 2 – Get All Processes
processList = Process.GetProcesses
![]() |
Get All Processes |
Step 3 – Get Current session Username
currentUsername = System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent().Name.Replace(System.Environment.UserDomainName+"\","")
![]() |
Get Current Session Username |
Step 4 – Perform "For Each" loop over all processes
Use "For Each" loop over variable "processList" and take the "TypeArgument" as "System.Diagnostics.Process"
Step 5 – Inside "For Each" loop, get username of the current process inside loop
itemProcessUsername = itemProcess.StartInfo.Environment("Username")
![]() |
Get Process Username |
Step 6 – Inside "For Each" loop, check condition using "If activity" whether the current process is under "processList" to be killed and current process username is of current session username
![]() |
Check Process for Current User |
Step 7 – Inside "For Each Loop", If the above condition meets then kill the process
![]() |

The process was, fill the chamber with measured amount of the granules and put the mold in the slot under. After permitting time for the plastic to soften, you pushed down the plunger to inject it into the mold. I had molds for tanks and troopers and construction tools like Shower Curtains bulldozers, and the plastic materials in several of} colours.
