Gentlemen,
Thanks for the ideas; I tried the wineyes /k one today during a remote
access session which froze speech, to no avail. smile In some
situations, we have to face that there is no easy fix. smile I'm keeping
my shortcut on the desktop just in case Windows is feeling generous one
day and lets me off the hook. smile
Much thanks though,
Rod

you do not need to do this. wineyes will kill all these programs when
you close wineyes.
i checked the taskmanager before and after i closed wineyes and all 5
running w e programs unloaded.
and each version of windows has different command line switches.
some use taskkill
if you use the wineyes commands it will work with all versions of
windows.
use this in a batch file or try doing this in the run dialog box.
wineyes.exe /k
you might have to use the full path to the wineyes.exe file.
i do not have to with win 7.

Hi Rod,
This is my copy of my kill WE8.bat file:
pskill wineyes.exe
pskill gwm32.exe
pskill speech32.exe
pskill bdisplay.exe
S
Just copy and paste it on to notepad and save as
kill we8.bat
Then yes, you can make a short cut and put it on your desktop, then
give it a hotkey, key, such as control alt k for kill (smile)

Hi Manny,
You mean something like this, which, incidentally, could just go in a
desktop shortcut:
%windir%\system32\taskkill.exe /f /im wineyes.exe
You know, it never even occurred to me to set up one, even though I
have this one in a shortcut for Internet Explorer, for when the
browser hangs:
%windir%\system32\taskkill.exe /f /im iexplore.exe
Thanks for the inspiration,
Rod

Hi Rod,
When WE8.4 crashes the control insert f4 does not function, and the
only way to get WE8.4 back and running is with a batch file.

Hi Manny,
I don't know what shutout or fritz 12 are, but I don't know why you're
killing WE with a batch file. Use Control-Insert-F4 instead to shut
down WE.
Thanks,
Rod

Aloha to all,
When I run
shutout on Fritz 12
WE8.4 becomes corrupt and stops talking.
Control backslash does not work.
I run my kill window eyes batch file, then I start we8 again and I am
up and running.
Any thoughts on how to fix this odd behavior?
This happens in windows 7 and 8 and 8.1
many thanks,
Manny
