- It's unclear what you are asking, do you want to send a ctrl+c equivalent signal to the Command (cmd) application in Windows to process and then close the Command window from your java program? I don't think it is possible at all.Joakim Danielson– Joakim Danielson2019-02-25 10:17:28 +00:00Commented Feb 25, 2019 at 10:17
- I would like to close cmd but I can't do it without press ctr+c. How to close/kill cmd window?John– John2019-02-25 10:25:36 +00:00Commented Feb 25, 2019 at 10:25

First you need to get the PID of this Process and then destroy it this might help you

I have information "Starting web server... Press 'Ctrl+C' to exit". If use "taskkill /F /IM cmd.exe" nothing will happen. But if I manually press ctrl+c on cmd then I can use "taskkill /F /IM cmd.exe" ad close cmd.

Well, you can write a Code in java to open cmd and run the server you want then terminat it and close it when you want. stackoverflow.com/questions/7433073/… and insted of sending Ctrl+C you can write "kill -SIGINT processPIDHere"

"taskkill /F /IM cmd.exe" that will close cmd.exe. You were supposed to provide name of application you want to kill.
