How to finish java.exe process in applet?

There is an applet on a HTML page. That applet loads a dll library and communicates with an external application through it. I can successfully load and work with that library. That library has functions INIT() and DEINIT().

The issue is when I try to call those functions again, the external app/library says that there is only one process can access to that app. It is an internal check. So I need a way to stop the Java process in order to start the app once again. But if I start the applet once, the Java process doesn't finished until I close the browser tab (or even the whole browser).

Is there a way to stop the Java process in the scope of the browser tab? And I need Java to start as soon as applet in the HTML page will appear.

You can't stop the JVM from the applet, it's managed by the browser.

You might consider switching to a Java Web Start application instead, it's started in its own VM.
