System hangs on killing all the running processes

Hi all,

I am writing a application for Pocket PC using WinCE 3.0 API set. I
want to close all running applications in the system. I am able to get
list of all running process in the system. If I do kill all processes,
system hangs. I understand few processes need to remain alive. So what
all processes I should not kill. My question is what all process should
always run to keep device running properly. For example after doing
hard reset what all process system starts. I want to achieve close to
hard reset state for device programmatically. Or is there any way to
hard reset the device programmatically.

Thanks,
Pradeep

Hi,

I have the same problem too. I've searching around the net to develop
my simple pocket pc application using vb.net to read my pocket outlook
(such as contact). But the main problem is when i close the program, it
still remain in memory (i can't see the program is running in default
running program but I see it still running using Pocket Tools), i must
to kill the process manually (such as reset or kill process button in
Pocket Tools) eventhough I have write the code "me.close" or
"Application.Exit", it didn't work.
How to kill process using VB.Net ? What is the syntax to kill process ?
Thank you for your respond

For Killing Processes you can check this link,

http://groups-beta.google.com/group/microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.compactframework/browse_thread/thread/64e1aa8acb33f411/e2c59cac97d5b3c8?q=&rnum=33#e2c59cac97d5b3c8

But I am not sure about the processes that are mandatory to be always
running.

Cheers,
Arun.

I can suggest device, filesys, and gwes as processes that you should
absolutely not kill. Maybe you could hard reset your device and then see
what processes are running, and start from there?
