Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum+Decred/Siacoin GPU Miner v5.0 (Windows/Linux)
Hey Claymore,
I'm trying to get my rigs under a sleep schedule as my electricity provider is charging extra $$ during peak hours of the day (for summer months). So, I've got a couple scripts that run using the Task Scheduler on Windows. I need to be able to close the miner before it sleeps the rig, so that when the task to wake the rig up and start the miner executes later, I won't have >1 instance of the miner running. I've tried the following:
...which made me do this:
Can you tell me a good way to gracefully exit your miner via cmd?

Bump! Can anyone help me out here?
taskkill /F /IM EthDcrMiner64.exe /T >nul
Used to work for me.. And try using "runas /user:administrator C:\data\mybatchfile.bat"
Here it is the whole BAT file of mine:

There's some neat stuff like random start of mining eth or clones, timeout after rebooting and rotating mining of the alt coins after given period..
EDIT: Forgot to add EXP row.
