When a computer starts to freeze or operate slowly and doesn’t respond, ending the task(s) from the task manager usually ends the program and the problem. Why does this work better than simply canceling the task with ALT+F4/pressing the cancel button in the window?
In: Technology
Clicking the X button or pressing alt+F4 is asking a program to close. It may do it but it can also ignore it if doesn’t feel like it, or can’t do it.
You just inform the program , that you’d like to end, but it’s up to it what it’ll do with that knowledge.
Task manager just straight up kills the app without even asking.
