Microsoft DirectX 9.0

Kill Help Utility


Kill Help is a utility for developers who are working on Microsoft® Windows® 98 or Windows Millennium Edition (Windows Me). When a Microsoft DirectX® application crashes, the Ddhelp.exe process sometimes remains active. When this happens, it prevents other Microsoft DirectDraw® or Microsoft Direct3D® applications from working until Ddhelp.exe is terminated or the computer is rebooted. This utility will terminate the ddhelp process and spare developers from having to reboot their computer.
