I'm looking for a script who can realize this sequence.

1. Close the Program every 30 minute;
2. Wait 30 seconds;
3. Relaunch the Program;

Can you help me manage this problem ? Thanks a lot !

Download autohotkey

copy code:

Loop
{
Run Notepad.exe,,, pid
WinWait ahk_pid %pid%
Sleep 1800
WinClose
Sleep 30
}

Click to expand...

replace 'Notepad.exe' with your program. eg. 'C:\firefox.exe'

Yes that is what it does.

Loop
{
Run Notepad.exe,,, pid ;--> run program
WinWait ahk_pid %pid%
Sleep 1800 ;--> wait 30 minutes
WinClose ;--> close program
Sleep 30 ;--> wait 30 seconds
}

Loop ;--> repeat forever. After waiting 30 seconds it repeats the entire process.

edit:

what is your program?

Instead of creating a script that is constantly running...You could make a bat file or script that stops and starts your application and then schedule it in windows scheduler ...

Get WinAutomation and automate the task of killing firefox in the task manager (really easy) then use the scheduler to do this every 30min!
