killing qv.exe process through batch file

[#1]

Hi all,

Currently i'm running th qlikview file through batch file with below command for every 30 minutes.

"C:\QlikView\Program Files\qv.exe" /r "C:\EAT_V4.2\DataExtractor\DataExtractor30Minutes.qvw"

Now i'm facing the problem in task manger --> Process tab , it is holding the old qv.exe. Because of this after some time period qlikview got stop working to open or run batch files. But after killing the old process Manually again its getting working.

Is there any command for killing the old qv.exe process in taskmanager through  BATCH file ?

Thanks in advance.

You dont have to kill the QV.exe.

Log in to the service account, open qlikview, in USER PREFERENCES, uncheck "Keep Progress open after reload"

I did it this way, it works.

Hi

I have not tested that on Server. I suggest that you google "tskill windows server" or similar.

You may need taskkill.exe on Windows Server 2000, 2003, 2008. Check this url:

Hi,

Just curious, notice you are using qv.exe.

You probably need to perform the lic leasing every 30 days with yours service account?

But did you try using QVDistribution.exe?
