Kill or Close Programs Running in the Background

Help

Hi, I have a little bit problem with killing or closing an excel file. I’m using Kill process to close “excel” and also “Close application” selecting the excel file I wanted to be closed. But then between the process I need to open the excel again with cmd and when I do it, cmd says “The process can not acces to the file because it’s been used by another process”

I’ve searched into tasks manager and I’ve found excel running in the background after I’ve closed it.

How can I really close the excel if both “Close Application” and “Kill process” doesn’t work for this case?
