There is no command line switch to close Outlook. However, there is a KILL utility from the Windows 2000/XP Resource Kit. There are also other alternatives at these links:

Hi,

These two lines in a .vbs file close Outlook and can be invoked from a
command line (eg: cscript /batch OutlookClose.vbs)

Set objOLK = createObject("Outlook.Application")
objOLK.quit

Sorry in place of cscript /batch please read cscript //B
