How to stop the DebugView tool through command line parameters

In my project I want to start the DebugView tool through command line parameters to capture kernel logs automatically, but after finishing a task I want to stop this DebugView tool. How do I stop this tool through command line parameters?

Solution

  • It depends on what you want,

    1. You could:

      taskkill /IM dbgview.exe

      But that might not guarantee all logs a written to the output file (I'm not sure what would happen).

    2. You could use Debugview++ UI from https://github.com/djeedjay/DebugViewPP/releases

      And define a 'stop' filter. This would stop the scrolling, but not stop collection of the data.

    3. Leave a comment at https://github.com/djeedjay/DebugViewPP/issues/270 which I just filed to add a commandline option to do just this ;) And I will implement it.
