possible "pkill -f node" alternative on windows

Question

I am currently trying to fix:

[nodemon] app crashed - waiting for file changes before starting...

One solution was to run pkill -f node but that is a macOS-specific thing. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

You can use taskkill as suggested in the comments. Use an asterisk for a partial name of a process. For example, to kill all python scripts:

taskkill -f -im python*

And in your case, the solution can look like:

taskkill -f -im node*
