I want to automate a repetitive task.

Im basic terms, you can create a batch file to do this

 

start "chrometask" "c:/path_to_chome/chorme.exe" "https://url.com"

 

then use 

tasklist /FO csv /v to list all your tasks, and find the one you want, you can pipe that through findstr -i to search

 

then use taskkill /PID processid from the previous to kill it..

 

Its not a perfect solution, but should give you enough of a start to give it a go.

 

Hope it helps!

it is difficult since  some technicals/programmings are involved.

 

Can you please suggest some software easy to use solution ?
