To force quit an application on Windows without using Task Manager, press Alt + F4 while the app window is active. This will immediately close the selected program. If the app is unresponsive, you can also use Command Prompt by typing taskkill /im appname.exe /f (replace appname.exe with the actual process name). Another option is to press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open the end task dialog directly for quicker access.

To force quit on Windows without Task Manager, press Alt + F4 to close the active window. If that doesn't work, use Command Prompt: press Win + R, type cmd, then enter taskkill /im programname.exe /f replacing “programname.exe” with the app’s executable. Alternatively, create a shortcut with this command for quick force quitting specific apps.
