ASCII.jp For a thing ... four ways to forcibly terminate the app on a Mac

When working on a Mac, the behavior of the app is strange.The next moment when I thought it was "dangerous", the app stopped working at all.Clicking "End", but the screen is solidified ... Many Mac users have experienced such experiences.

If you have just purchased a Mac and are now operating smoothly, you don't know when the app will freeze.It is safe to know the forced ending technique so that you do not have to panic.

Apple's official website introduces the following four methods:

Press the "Command"+"Option"+"ESC" key at the same time and open the "End of the app" window.Select an app that has not responded and click "Forced End".

You can switch to another application that is not frozen and open the same window from the "forced termination" of the Apple menu.If you have a lot of mouse operations, this will be easier to do

While pressing the "Option" key, right -click the app that has not responded from the Dock and select "End".

Previously, "Let's use the magic key" Option "in the Mac menu bar" (related article) introduced the tips where more information appears when you click the "Option" key while pressing the "Option" key.Docks can call the forced end menu in the same way.

The menu when the left is right -clicked, the left is the menu when the "Option" key is pressed.

First, call the Spotlight search with the "Control"+"Space" key and start the activity monitor.

You may open it from the "Utility" folder or "Other" of LaunchPad

Click the app that has not responded and select "End Process" from the "Display" menu.Press the "Forced End" button on the toolbar of the activity monitor window.

The forced end button is the "x" mark in the upper left of the window

If the Mac does not accept the operation at all and cannot be switched from an app that does not respond to another screen, press the "Command"+"Option"+"Shift"+"ESC" key for 3 seconds to end it.。When this operation is forced, the app at the forefront is forcibly terminated.

If you remember one of the above methods, you can calm down and cope with the application freezing.However, in this case, all the unpaid changes are lost, so I would like to try the normal termination method first and use the forced termination only when it is unavoidable.
