    Computer unresponsive in a weird way every time I close a game


    Hi My computer has been working perfectly fine for 2 years but recently it's been behaving weirdly.Every time I close a game it becomes unresponsive.-I can still move my mouse and click on the different tabs on my opera browser and steam, but they load pretty slowly and I cannot play any videos or start a new game-I can still drag windows around and open new windows explorer folders-The entire taskbar stops working-I cannot start the task manager, but if it's already open then all the information in all the tabs stop refreshingthey're all frozen but I can still switch to the different tabs -

    :)

    What is the proper way to close unresponsive processes?

    I used taskkill so far to kill unresponsive processes:
    Code:
    However I read this is not a safe way to close process! It could mess up registry, or Windows, or program data!!!

    There is also cmdlet: Stop-Process, it works similarly. But I have no idea, if this is any better. Still you need to force process to close, otherwise it won't close! Taskkill might be still better than hard restart tho! Games freeze a lot of times on alt-tab, or bug... This saved me from hardrestart many times!

    WTH?

    Not what 44k post user says LOOOOOOOL: How to Close Firefox (or any program) at Command Line/Prompt • mozillaZine Forums
    I read that from multiple sources...

    He says: closing forcibly program using taskkill can corrupt registry, any numbers of programs and files...

    What do you mean by these 2? What about PowerShell cmdlet - Stop-Process?

    It is weird that there wouldn't be any way to close unresponsive program safely. Hardrestart can do the same, or worse than if you closed forcibly just one unresponsive program!

  10. Task manager acts unresponsive, it crashes every time I close it

    in Windows 10 Support
    Task manager acts unresponsive, it crashes every time I close it: I have an MSI GL63 8RE laptop using Wingows 10 Home ver. 1903 which was working fine until yesterday, but this morning suddenly it's become really glitchy. For example, a lot of my apps won't open up at all, only a few games/apps not installed on the SSD(the Windows drive)...
