Windows 10: tasklist.exe - Application Error

I've been having an issue for the past several days where I get a random error window, regardless of what I'm doing.I've installed the latest Windows updates and Windows Security says everything's fine, so I'm not sure what's causing this issue.

:)

 

TASKLIST command LIES!

I have two Windows 10 PCs connected to a NAS via 1Gps Ethernet and run applications such as Thunderbird, Lightroom, Quicken, and others that lock shared network files on the NAS when in use. On sleep, switch user, or lock screen,
I wish to gracefully stop these apps if running to release the locks. I've not found a reliable way to do this. After trying to use the Windows Event Scheduler, LockandLoad, or Power Triggers to kill tasks when sleep/switch/lock events are detected, I've
concluded this approach is futile: if a task doesn't clean up quickly enough after receiving a TASKKILL notification, it will be suspended with the shared files left in an unusable state.

So to avoid this race condition, I wrote a batch script (below) that runs TASKKILL to end a list of applications, then loops running a TASKLIST command until the killed tasks are no longer listed, then runs a sleep/switch/lock command.
I disabled the standard sleep and lock start menu items (haven't found a way to disable switch user), and created shortcuts to this script with appropriate arguments.

It STILL does not work reliably. The only explanation I can think of is that the TASKLIST command must not be returning accurate info.

What to do?

Tasklist problem. Please help.

I tried the following steps to get a list of the processes running on my computer. I actually found it on the Microsoft Windows support website.

"use the command line command tasklist. For example, in

Start >Run, type

tasklist /FO CSV>C:\tasklist.csv [click OK]

This will produced an Excel spreadsheet of the Task Manager information"

It seems to run fine, but I have absolutely no idea as to WHERE the list goes to? I cannot find it!

If someone can help me out on this it would be greatly appreciated, or if someone knows a more simple way to get a list of the processes running on my computer, please let me know.

In the mean time, I will keep pulling the last few hairs out of my head.
