Restarting the machine will automatically kill all the (QlikView) services, which as a result will kill all the QlikView server service sessions.

I would suggest checking the QMC first to see if there are no tasks running though.

This could be implemented in a more flexible vbs-script (see attachments) but I think you are working on symptoms and not on the causes. Why do you want to kill processes?
