Would taskkill.exe help?
For example, "taskkill.exe /im dumpcap.exe" , etc.
I've also used WMIC in the past to save ProcessID's of tasks so you can later kill specific instances of a task instead of all of them with the same name. I'd refer you to the dumpcap.bat file posted on https://wiki.wireshark.org/Tools for how I did that.
