Remove a running process from memory in DOS

KILL (Resource kit)

Remove a running process from memory.

Syntax
KILL [option] process_id
KILL [option] task_name
KILL [option] window_title

Option
-f Force process kill

Note: Kill -f basically just nukes the process from existence, potentially leaking a lot of memory and losing any data that the process hadn't committed to disk yet. It is there for worst case scenarios - when you absolutely must end the process now, and don't care whether proper cleanup gets done or not.
