[windows] How do I kill the process currently using a port on localhost in Windows?

In case you want to do it using Python: check Is it possible in python to kill process that is listening on specific port, for example 8080?

The answer from Smunk works nicely. I repeat his code here:

from psutil import process_iter
from signal import SIGTERM # or SIGKILL

for proc in process_iter():
    for conns in proc.connections(kind='inet'):
        if conns.laddr.port == 8080:
            proc.send_signal(SIGTERM) # or SIGKILL
            continue
