LMMS • Forums

Ive had issues with LMMS crashing when it comes to using VST plugins. This crashing doesn't close the VST processes and leaves them all behind after crashing. If you don't manually close these processes then they build up and after a few crashes I can sometimes have 30+ processes just sitting there taking up memory.

So I created a .bat file to automatically kill them all. Here is the code I used:
This will kill ALL of the running VST plugin processses, so don't run this after you have recovered your crashed project, cause it will also kill the processes that are running in your current LMMS instance.

Is this command for Windows? On Debian-based GNU/Linux the following should work:
pkill RemoteVst

Sometimes Zynaddsubfx also hangs after an lmms crash:
pkill RemoteZyn

On openSUSE I just hit ctrl esp, which brings up, a task manager.
( this prob works for all who use kde)

But he created a bat file, so its def for windows. I think that's called a bash file on linux.
