TextInput.InputApp

I have the below CMD that is supposed to End Task for . . .

Code:

taskkill /f /im "WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe"

. . . which I have put in the Startup folder %AppData%\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup.

Unfortunately, this does NOT work and I end up running the command from a CMD Prompt.

Am I missing something ?

Thanks in advance.

Without actually trying it, I'd guess it's related to requiring admin permissions.
Same applies if you try to put something in Startup that requires a UAC prompt...

Thanks for the reply. This is the Script that I am actually using . . .

Code:

@echo off
fsutil Dirty Query %SystemDrive% > nul && goto:[RunAs]
echo CreateObject^("Shell.Application"^). ^
ShellExecute "%~0","+","","RunAs",1 > "%Temp%\+.vbs" && "%Temp%\+.vbs" & Exit
:[RunAs]
taskkill /f /im "WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe"

Try using a shortcut to it created thus:
Create Elevated Shortcut without UAC prompt in Windows 10

Thanks again for the reply @dalchina, it is appreciated.

Do you mean create a shortcut in the Startup folder ?

If that's where you want to launch it from, yes..

Thanks again @dalchina,

I will try that later as I have workmen here today.

You're lucky if you can get them! Usually it takes me a year to find people who a. respond to request for quote b. actually go on to do the job - and then I usually find I spend 5x as long finishing it for them!

E.g. the consequences of double glazing, a badly fitted 1938 vintage door (always was since I knew it).. a bathroom floor fixed and prepared for vinyl..

Anyway, try your sparkly new shortcut manually first, of course.
