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?

Closing a program the normal way is basically telling it “ok, finish up all the stuff you’re doing and get out of here”.
Killing the task (or better yet, process) says “I don’t care what you’re doing, get out now.”
