The following VB.NET program allows to start multiple calculator applications and later it kill the same instances of all calculator applications.
The Process component is a useful tool for starting, stopping, controlling, and monitoring applications. A process is a running application and a thread is the basic unit to which the operating system allocates processor time. Using the Process component, you can obtain a list of the processes that are running, or you can start a new process.
GetProcessesByName(String) - Creates an array of new Process components and associates them with all the process resources on the local computer that share the specified process name.
The above syntax retrieve all the process associated with "calc" application in the _proceses array. System.Diagnostics provides access to local and remote processes and enables you to start and stop local system processes.
