Kill service windows 7 access denied

You have not correctly understood me. My service can not complete the process of a normal user. My service at the opening user session, runs in the session process, and when the session ends trying to complete a process, but gets denied access.

I apologize for the delay. I have to complete the process in such a way, because of the fact that I have not found a way to track the normal application when the user lock session.

If i am taking down my processes, will it be still unstable?

However pskill can't kill any process. In my case it can't kill nginx wrapper that is not critical process. It's a service but not a usual process.
