you must kill child process too if any spawned to kill successfully your process
taskkill /IM "process_name" /T /F
/T = kills child process
/F = forceful termination of your process

The taskkill and powershell (kill) methods didn't work for me; it still said "Access Denied".
I had better luck with this:
wmic process where "name='myprocessname.exe'" delete

python - Port 8000, PID 4, not able to kill, taskill /f /pid 4, Access Denied - Stack Overflow
Task manager: access denied when I attempt to end a task!
I tried "taskkill /F /PID (number" but no effect - access denied
Kill a process with access denied ?
Try using PSEXEC to launch CMD as SYSTEM then taskkill the pid.
More on reddit.comif you're in Windows this might help you, the port 80 is usually being used by this service: "World Wide Web Publishing Service", open "Services" in the Control Panel and stop it
As per python documentation the http.server module can also be invoked directly using the -m switch of the interpreter with a port number argument. Similar to the previous example, this serves the files relative to the current directory.
python -m http.server 8000
In case your port 8000 is already is being used just change it to another no.
python -m http.server 5000
It's not a good idea to arbitrarily just kill processes and more over system processes.
Hi luticuspyros,
Welcome to the Microsoft Community. As per the problem description you get access denied error when you attempt to end a task in task manager.
· Have you made any changes on the computer prior to the issue?
I will help you with this issue. I would suggest you to follow the steps from the article.
"Access Denied" or other errors when accessing or working with files and folders in Windows
Hope this helps. Let us know if you need further assistance with Windows.
No changes have been made to the system, it's a domain based account (domain admin) with admin privileges on the local machine. This is a near fresh load of windows 8 (not an upgrade installation). There is no custom UI software on the machine. This is the VLK edition of windows 8 pro. Thanks for your help!
Also I'm familiar with permissions regarding files and folders and I can assure you that I have permission to access (read/write) in the folder responsible for the process. The process in question (this time) is pidgin. It is currently not responding and has been stuck that way for days. I refuse to shutdown my machine until I find a way to terminate this task without doing so.
Of course i'm administrator in my pc, windows 8.1.
I changed ownership of folder and subfolders in safe mode to my account. But it doesn't help. In services.msc start and stop are grayed out. I was able to change startup to manual but this program still started automatically. If i try to delete this program, i get message than i have to get permission by administrator. But i am administrator.
Shortly: WTF?
Hello, is there a way to kill a process that gives access denied without restarting the server. Tried from cmd and powershell with force still did not work.
