Is there a way to kill a Windows process, say calc.exe, with PHP without using exec?

exec calls an external program, I try to avoid using that command unless necessary.

    There is.

    Use the W32api PHP extension, which provides access to the Win32 API – then use the TerminateProcess() API after aquiring a handle to the process.
