Is there a way to close all BOINC processes from the command line (i.e. a batch file)?

I have some automated tasks I run at certain times, and I would like to shut down (and restart) BOINC from a Windows Scheduled Task, if possible.

I've found some info that the command "boinccmd --quit" seems to shut down boinc.exe, but boincmgr.exe is still running.

Next, to restart everything, I assumed that "boincmgr.exe /s" would restart the whole show, (and it seems to), but I end up with two copies of BOINC Manager running.

- Win 98SE
- BIONC 5.2.13
- Single user install, accepting all the defaults
(machine has user profiles enabled, if that matters)

Any help appreciated.

Yeah, that was a good solution to a different problem I had before (Windows Shutdown). Good info indeed, but doesn't address my question in this thread.
