Command line tool to automatically find and kill Windows processes using search criteria. Designed specifically to eliminate such cases when it is very hard to kill hung process with normal means (e.g. resource hungry fullscreen 3D game) and you have to restart your PC. By binding SnK with specific search criteria to some hotkey (with AHK for example) you can now kill such processes with ease.

Features

  • Simple command line arguments to tell SnK exactly what to do!
  • Search using different criterias: name matching, cpu usage, 3D acceleration and more!
  • Can be used in silent windowless mode!
  • Bind SnK to key combination with desktop shortcut or AutoHotkey (or similar) to use its full potential!
