close exe

how can i make it close an exe file thats open:
ex. if console.exe run
close console.exe

because then the restart will never fail, cuz i make it close the console first.

if u close the console first it would not start the server anymore ^^

Environment.Exit(0);

That what you mean?

Code:

Environment.Exit(Environment.ExitCode);

I think basically what he wants to do is
Environment.Exit(0);
Process.Start("ProcessName.exe");
Not sure if the process one is correct.

Wait, are you trying to close your own process, or close a process from a different one?
To close the process thats running that code:

Code:

Environment.Exit(Environment.ExitCode);

Else you need to do something like this
(using System.Diagnostics; )

Code:

foreach (Process process in Process.GetProcessesByName("console"))
{
    process.Kill();
}

To start a process use

Code:

Process.Start("console.exe"); // this also returns an instance of the class Process by which you can do other things
