Review by:
3.5/5

If you ever needed to schedule a certain program to close after a given time, you probably gave up as Windows doesn't provide you with a simple way of doing that.

However, you can turn to specialized applications such as Run And Kill that enables you to do so quickly and with minimum efforts.

This application can help you launch a program from your computer and kill it after a given time in a quick, effortless manner. You just need to specify the target program and the time you want to pass before it is terminated.

However, you must input the details manually into a command prompt, as the program doesn't provide you with a standard user interface where you specify them.

Run And Kill doesn't provide you with a graphical user interface, which can be disconcerting to many users, which might find it troublesome to operate its controls from the command line utility.

On the bright side, the text document included in the archive offers you enough information. Also, double clicking the executable offers you a sample of the program's functionality, as it launches a session of notepad that automatically closes in 30 seconds.

This program doesn't require you to install on the target computer, as it is portable and can be used by simply decompressing the archive and launching the executable. It can also be launched from removable storage media such as external HDDs or USB flash drives.

More so, it doesn't create any additional folders or files on your computer and it doesn't tamper with any of your Windows registry entries.

In conclusion, Run And Kill is a lightweight application that can help you run a program on your computer and terminate them after a given time. It doesn't require installation and comes with no graphical user interface.
