Different calls:

– clicking ‘close’ asks the program “please close”
– selecting ‘end task’ in task manager, asks scheduler/kernel to close application (Boss angrily asks application to close)
– using kernel call “taskkill /f /im explorer.exe” is an example of a kernel ‘force close’ command for an app. (boss kicks application out)
– pushing and releasing the power button – OS level request to shutdown gracefully (Building closing – follow exit signs)
– holding power button in for 8 seconds – motherboard halt and shut down command
– pulling power and battery – no power can’t run

This is kind of like a mechanic:
– use a wrench
– use a breaker bar
– use a torch to melt it off (can’t be stuck if it’s a liquid)
