Forces a window to close.
WinKill ( "title" [, "text"] )
| title | The title/hWnd/class of the window to close. See Title special definition. |
| text | [optional] The text of the window to close. Default is an empty string. See Text special definition. |
| Success: | 1. |
| Failure: | The function only returns the success value. |
The difference between this function and WinClose() is that WinKill() will forcibly terminate the window if it doesn't close quickly enough. Consequently, a user might not have time to respond to dialogs prompting the user to save data. Although WinKill() can work on both minimized and hidden windows, some windows (notably explorer windows) can only be terminated using WinClose().
