Fun tip: if you’ve sorted the details list by cpu and the keep dancing around, hold down Ctrl to stop them from getting away while you kill them.
-
Ctrl+Shift+ESC opens the Task Manager directly. It saves you whole seconds!
Edit: task manager obviously, not team manager.
-
This is the way. I haven't used Ctrl+Alt+Del to open Task Manager since the Windows XP days. The only time Ctrl+Alt+Del is still useful is when you want to interrupt a fullscreen app that is misbehaving and won't give you the desktop back.
-
CTRL+ALT+DEL sends a system interrupt which often breaks stuck programs back open.
-
-
Ctrl+Shift+Esc
-
Under Linux the program that is used to send termination(and any other, of course) signals is called "kill".
-
On Windows it's "taskkill".
-
Whenever some app locks me in blackscreen, this comes to help.
taskkill /F /T /IM "<name_of_the_offending_app>*"Learned to type it into cmd from memory. I also have old PC so yeah. :|

Chrome, that is your problem right there.
-
Sure it is. But I feel like you never used Photoshop. It sucks up all the RAM. It's more RAM intensive than any 3D software or browser I've ever used. (That is, except for Substance Painter, which is also in the Adobe family now unfortunately)
-
How is literally running the slowest.
-
-
Back in the day, that would big bang their entire universe…
-
So what, like create a whole computer from nothing?
-
Reboot the computer, which means RAM is zapped, all running programs are killed instantly, and the computer is restarted.

-
Chrome being smart here, telling everyone to run while not running too hard itself so it doesn't show up too high in TM
-
It's windows, that's why.
-
Really - as someone has moved to a "windows shop" for work... Alot of windows admins have no idea what's going on. But they're not even capable of pulling logs (who I'm working with - not everyone).
It's all seems to be voodoo and vibes.
-
We use a third-party IT department for my City, and they just give up and tell us we need to buy a new laptop if it's more complicated than "check for updates."
And since they're the ones who have the contract to sell us equipment, it works great for them.
-
Going from windows to linux and having actually useful logs instead of whatever the hell event viewer is meant to be was life changing for self helping

Program; ha my background process just reopens me
Process Explorer; delete
-
The numerous "update services" that somehow defy my start up list.
-
How do I use Ctrl-Alt-Del, on the servers computer, for the website I have to use for work?
-
Get hired as a system admin
-
Through SSH? Btop, htop, or regular top.
Oh windows? Beats me!
-
-
Jokes on you, Chrome has it's own task management. Webbrowsers are vastly overengineered.
-
Wonder who brown and pink are…
-
Jokes aside, when I run few Electron apps and Windows 11 VM, my Debian setup struggles. I might need to finally upgrade to 32 GB of RAM because of that, lol. Well, or at least 24 GB, I don't have much money right now, lol.

Taskkill /im process.exe /f

Fear will keep them in line
