I notices the reason I could not re-open an app was due to it's process was still running. I created a text file with the following:
@ echo off
taskkill /f /im photoshop.exe
exit
After saving it as a .txt, I renamed it to a .bat. I keep it on the desktop handy. It kills the background process, and allows me to re-open. I am assuming in my code that the process is photoshop.exe.
