Delphi - How to kill a process by knowing its path?

Until now I was using this function to kill a process. But what if I have three processes of the same name and only one of them is the one that I want to kill? If I will do this: KillTask('csrss.exe') then it will kill the system process. I have the path of my process, how can I use this information to kill it?

Iterate over processes and check the path for each of them, then use the answer from this SO question (use GetModuleFileNameEx):

get the full path from a PID using delphi

If you launched the process then remember the PID or Handle and kill the specific one.
