Hello,
My program generates 4 different images in 4 different window in one
operation.
It is quite tedious to close every window after display to run the
program again after I change some
parameters in the program in order to see new 4 images.
I'm wondering there is a way to kill/close the old windows when the
program starts over.
Thank you.

Thank you all for the advice above.
Those were the ones that I was looking for exactly.
Thanks again.

Or, if you want to add more open windows in the future (hey, computer screens are getting
bigger all the time!) you could do:
nWin=4
winID=lonarr(nWin)
for i=0,nWin-1 do begin
window, /free
winID[i]=!d.window
endfor
...do stuff....
; plot to first window
wset, winID[0]
plot, .....
; plot to second window
wset, winID[1]
plot, .....
etc....
; done
for i=0,nWin-1 do wdelete, winID[i]
?
Increase nWin as required.
Using the above you could have additional windows open that you *don't* want destroyed
every time you rerun your code.
Or, even more simply, you could just do
!p.multi=[0,2,2]
and avoid the multiple windows altogether. :o)

This should delete all open windows:
IDL> while !D.WINDOW ne -1 do wdelete
if you know the window indices of the four windows your program creates, you can do:
IDL> wdelete, w_ind1, w_ind2, w_ind3, w_ind4
where w_ind1, w_ind2, ... correspond to the window indices of your open windows.
Hope that helps,
