Microsoft showed a new way to force quit programs in Windows 11

The American corporation Microsoft in the new test build of Windows 11 introduced a new way to force quit programs – to do this, right-click on the application on the taskbar and select “End task”. Previously, when programs freeze, clicking on the cross in the upper right corner of the application or the Alt + F4 combination did not always help, after which you had to call the Task Manager.

The new feature is available to members of the Windows Insider program and is activated in the settings under the “Privacy and security” and “For developers” menu. It is intended to be disabled by default when included in a major version of the operating system, and is also intended primarily for use by programmers and testers to work on software.
