There are a number of questions already answered on killing processes by name, getting various details etc. — BugFinder, May 22 '17 at 07:45
@BugFinder something else starts. this command : ChromeDriver cdDrive = new ChromeDriver(); — Furkan Gözükara, May 22 '17 at 08:14
Sure you dont just want to use cdDrive.Close(); cdDrive.Quit(); ? — BugFinder, May 22 '17 at 08:15
@BugFinder sure i would like to use them. but due to an annoying bug in selenium they dont work under certain circumstances : https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/4054 — Furkan Gözükara, May 22 '17 at 10:41
I am searching for something similar. when I launch a new chromedriver I would like to have its process ID or be able to pass in an argument which identifies it Then I would know which one to kill later on. — Daniel Williams, Nov 05 '20 at 16:51

0

as it was stated where System.Diagnostics.Process.GetProcessesByName("chromdriver.exe")[0].Id

will return PID number
