How to kill a WAC initiated process

Question

Hello,

I start Windows Admin Center (WAC) and attach to a remote system. There I open a Power Shell and start my application. That application runs for ever in an endless loop. Now I close my WAC so along with that the PS windows also gets closed BUT the application keeps running. What I want is, when I kill the WAC my application also should die. When WAC exits my application becomes a Zombie process. How can I prevent this Zombie process? Please advice.

If you do a Remote Desktop(RDP) to that system and open a PS window and run the same command and then close the PS window, the program dies along with the PS window. Question is via WAC how to get the same affect?

1.Question is via WAC how to get the same affect?
I think we can try to create a task scheduler on remote server to stop the expected app when your admin account disconnect from the remote server(or create task scheduler domain policy to applied to your expected remote servers or using task scheduler in WAC)?

after the task scheduler create successfully, we can click "disconnect" in WAC like picture1 and check the result.
