There is two commands in Windows Server, kill
and taskkill
that seems to have similar functionality. But I want to know their exact differences and their usages.
Can anyone explain it?

As Greg said, Windows doesn't have a native kill
command, PowerShell has a alias kill
for Stop-Process
. If your cmd.exe responses to kill
you have some external command somewhere in your path.
