Answer 1

Maybe using SendKeys. Save the following as Closer.vbs:

set shell = createobject("wscript.shell")
rcSuccess = shell.AppActivate("title of window to activate")
if rcSuccess = 1 then shell.sendkeys "%{F4}"

Then make a batch file called CloseApp.BAT containing

REM Close some App
cscript /nologo closer.vbs

And run using:

CloseApp
