Killing Your Non-responsive Programs Immediately

Pressing CTRL+ ALT+DELETE and choosing to kill the task may take several time. Especially it may take time to load taskmanager when you have more than two non-responsive windows.

At that situation I simply use the following command:

Taskkill

It is actually a MS-DOS command to kill the task.

How to use it?
It can be easily accessed from Run window.

Go to Start> Run
Type:

taskkill /f /im programname.exe

/f parameter refers to force the taskkill.
/im parameter refers to kill the other linking tasks that may be causing problem.

When you type the command and press OK button, it will load a MS-DOS window and fade out promptly and in no time you’ll see your non-responsive window being closed.

For example,

For non-responsive photshop:

Taskkill /f /im photoshop.exe

For non-responsive firefox:

Taskkill /f /im firefox.exe
