Closing more than one Autohotkeys applications

Question

I have 4 applications and I have to use 4 different autohotkey exe applications for always on Top future. However, I would like to close all of them or kill their process. I tried using ESC::ExitApp, Process.Kill() function as well, but only one of them is closing.

Here is my code:

#SingleInstance Force

WinSet, AlwaysOnTop, Toggle, Bot
Winset, Style, -0xC00000, Bot

^!p::Pause
*ESC::ExitApp
return

Other applications are the same but different Windows Title name.

Process[] bottom = Process.GetProcessesByName("bottom");
//MessageBox.Show(workers.Length.ToString());
foreach (Process bot in bottom)
{
    bot.Kill();
    bot.WaitForExit();
    bot.Dispose();
}

Process[] left = Process.GetProcessesByName("left");
//MessageBox.Show(workers.Length.ToString());
foreach (Process l in left)
{
    l.Kill();
    l.WaitForExit();
    l.Dispose();
}

Process[] right = Process.GetProcessesByName("test1");
//MessageBox.Show(workers.Length.ToString());
foreach (Process r in right)
{
    r.Kill();
    r.WaitForExit();
    r.Dispose();
}

Process[] top = Process.GetProcessesByName("top");
//MessageBox.Show(workers.Length.ToString());
foreach (Process t in top)
{
    t.Kill();
    t.WaitForExit();
    t.Dispose();
}

SendKeys.Send("{ESC}");

According to above code, I tried to kill 4 apps but only one is closing. Plus I cannot see in TaskManager running autohotkeys.exe files.Is there any way to turn off or close all autohotkeys.exe files? Thank you in advance.

You can use the WMI from windows to do that.

ESC::

    Query := "Select ProcessId, CommandLine from Win32_Process where name = 'Autohotkey.exe'"
 
    for process in ComObjGet("winmgmts:").ExecQuery(Query, "WQL")
        process, close, % process.ProcessId
Return
