I found this approach as very good for my purposes. It works at least . I suppose that there are another couple even better approach, so if you know them share please.
Type PROCESSENTRY32
dwSize As Long
cntUsage As Long
th32ProcessID As Long
th32DefaultHeapID As Long
th32ModuleID As Long
cntThreads As Long
th32ParentProcessID As Long
pcPriClassBase As Long
dwFlags As Long
szexeFile As String * 260
End Type

You can use the windows command TASKKILL and shell to that.
For example:
taskkill /F /FI "IMAGENAME eq notepad.exe"
will shut down all open applications of notepad.exe.
