Is it possible to close a program using XML?

I figured out the problem to the original post below, so here is where I need help.

Is it possible to close a program using XML before making changes? I figured out because I can't delete keys to a program that is running.

-----
Not sure where to begin, but I'll try my best with this. This is on Windows Mobile Pro 6.1 on a Treo Pro.

What I'm trying to do is build a cab to "reset" File Explorer to where the network components are removed. I am successful in a cab that removes the shared folder drop down but I cannot clear the key(s) that has the Open Path.

Quote:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="Registry">
<nocharacteristic
type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\File Explorer\DialogMRU" />
<characteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\File Explorer">
<noparm name="NetworkPath" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
According to the setup log in /Application Data/Volatile my <nocharacteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\File Explorer\DialogMRU" /> is denied. Yet I can go in with any registry editor and delete the keys myself.

Is there a quick fix for this, am I doing something wrong, or is there a wildcard that allows me to delete all the keys within DialogMRU without deleting the key itself. I know I can write it with a, b, c, etc. already in it...Or is there a way to use conditionals in XML?
