When I connect to my media PC using LogMeIn Free, Windows 7 Media Center shuts down because it doesn't work over a remote desktop connection. This isn't too much of a problem for me as it's the same with Microsoft's Remote Desktop.

In order to get around this limitation with Microsoft's Remote Desktop, I use the following batch file to kill RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), wait a moment and then re-start Windows Media Center:

tscon RDP-Tcp#0 /dest:console
ping -n 5 localhost > NUL
RunDLL32.exe C:\Windows\ehome\ehuihlp.dll,BootMediaCenter

The problem is that it doesn't work with LogMeIn Free as the session isn't killed/disconnected. Of course I could just run it and then close the window very fast, but that isn't ideal.

Is there a line I can add into this batch file which will also kill LogMeIn Free if it is connected?

So you just want to kill any existing Logmein sessions from command line? 

logmein.exe restart

Looks like it restarts the logmein service. I imagine this would have the desired effect.
