Kill by user

Add a property to the Kill activity - in order to apply the kill only to the processes of current user.

This should be the default anyway; for HD robots, killing by user is mandatory.

I think a snippet using Code Activity will do it.

@alex.stoian doesn’t this work like you described by default? Usually a user doesn’t have permissions to kill processes from a different windows session

@andraciorici

Actually it looks like our kill is trying to kill processes of other users.
Of course, it can’t do that - so that’s the error.

can’t this be done via code? Kill only the processes from current user?

Hello @badita @alex.stoian @andraciorici

Hi @alex.stoian,

Our default kill process activity can kill process running for other users too, (if the running user is in the Administrator Group) , i also have a similar situation as @alex.stoian said. So, Here is the solution i made for this

Hello,

UiPath.System.Activities 2021.4 now contains an AppliesTo parameter to select which users to apply a Kill Process activity toward.

Thanks
