Can somebody tell me how to end a Windows MediaPlayer session in Excel VBA. I

Thank you in advance for your reaction.

If you don't get a better answer try this. It uses Taskkill command to kill
the wmplayer.exe process.

Sub KillWMPlayer()

Shell """C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe"" /prefetch:1",
vbNormalFocus
Application.Wait Now + TimeValue("0:00:05")
Shell "CMD /C TASKKILL /IM wmplayer.exe"

End Sub
