Title: PatchMyPC not killing IE
Post by: tricer on January 17, 2013, 08:23:04 AM
Just wanted to let you know in my latest patch round with Java I have noticed that patchmypc will not kill IE and sits on the Java patch until IE is closed. I do have kill programs "Kill programs that conflict with updates" check and still having the same issue.

May you please look into this?

As a temp fix, i created a batch file to run this command then start patchmypc
here is the command i used to kill IE "taskkill /f /t /im iexplore.exe"

Also a timeout feature on updates would be great as well.

Thanks
Rich

thanks, also do you know by any chance how to add your program to the sonicwall default whitelist?

its a pain having to add your server IP to the whitelist on all my sonicwalls.
