Use Taskkill Command To Force Quit Unresponsive Task/Process/Program/App From Command Prompt

This video shows how to kill unresponsive task/process/program/app from windows command prompt or power shell very easily. You can easily kill any stubborn program or process with CMD taskkill command which you can't kill or stop easily. You don't need to download any task killer app at all. Even though many experts will recommend you to download task killer to force quite unresponsive app. In this video I showed you I tried to start Chrome but it was not starting. Then from Task Manager I have found a Chrome process is already going on. So I tried to force close the process from Task Manager. But the process was extremely unresponsive so it was not stopping. So the only way left is restarting computer. But as there is taskkill command so tried to kill process from command prompt using taskkill. And yes finally it did the job. In fact taskkill command is very powerful command that often we can use to get rid of many virus like explorer.exe virus and many more adware running in background. If you want to kill any process using taskkill command you can use tasklist command too. Tasklist command gives you list of the images or process running currently. First run tasklist to see the list of process along with PID. Then run taskkill to kill the process. Here are the commands... To see all the images or processes running currently... tasklist To Kill Processes From Command Prompt use... taskkill /IM image_name /F Taskkill Command Using PID... taskkill /PID /F At this moment I think I need to clarify some points. So here are some explanations. * Command prompt commands are not case sensitive. You can write either taskkill or TaskKill. Both are correct. * You can run all these commands in Windows Powershell too. CMD or Command Prompt is available in Windows 7, 8, 8.1, Vista, XP. But in Windows 10 Microsoft deprecated CMD and included Power Shell. The commands I showed you here will work without any modification in Power Shell too. * PID stands for Process ID. Process ID is just one kind of ID assigned to a specific process by Windows. * IM means image. /IM is used to kill a process AKA image by its name rather than PID. * /F stands for force. We use this flag to tell command prompt or powershell to kill a process forcefully. * taskkiller itself is an advanced task killer command so you don't need to download any third party app to force quit unresponsive apps. Just use taskkill command to force close a program without task manager. * To exit program in windows command prompt we use tasklist along with taskkill. Tasklist shows us the list of tasks while taskkill kills specific task. ========== My Other Windows Tips & Tricks Videos ========== --How To Check/Find Model Number of Laptop or Windows PC https://youtu.be/9-EvNruwtxw -- How to Clear CMD & PowerShell Screen https://youtu.be/2-9-6lil6Y4 -- How to Pin a Folder or Drive to Taskbar Easily Windows 10/8/7 https://youtu.be/wd5_rIb35Kg -- Show Hidden Files & Folders with CMD Attrib Command-Pen Drive/Flash Drive/Hard Drive/SSD/Memory Card https://youtu.be/JDU1cw7QR0o -- TrustedInstaller Permission Problem https://youtu.be/cy9TpKU5jPY -- Task Manager Hotkey- How to Open Task Manager on Windows 10 Using With Task Manager Shortcut Command https://youtu.be/t4vjcWx0hLg -- What RAM Do I Have?
