    End Tasks in Task manager Windows 10


    Why in windows 10 can in not end any task / process using task manager that I would like. For example the Xbox bar. When I try to end the task it tells me that I cannot end the process. In previous versions of windows if I wanted to end a task I could. Now all of the sudden I can't. Is this another instance of Microsoft forcing their will / assuming we are all to stupid to determine what happen with our PC's, like with the mandatory updates? Has anyone determined away around not allowing us t end tasks or for the mandatory updates?

    Every task I end remains in the task manager for over 10 minutes?

    Well lads.

    The last couple of days I am having a strange issue with closing programs down,
    I only notice it with games.
    When ever I exit a game, it remains in the task manager for over 10 minutes and it cannot be ended in anyway. The only way to sort it out is to just wait around or restart the computer.

    I believe this has only just started to happen 2 days ago when I got my new GPU " ASUS Geforce GTX 560 Ti Direct CUII 900Mhz TOP "

    The software that was installed could have caused it??

    ASUS Splendid
    ASUS SmartDoctor
    ASUS GamerOSD

    Any suggestions?

    Windows 10 Task Manager "End Task" does not end task.

    Hi Glenn,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    1) Does it show any error message while performing End Task Through
    Task Manager?

    I suggest you to perform Safe Mode with Networking and then try to end the task and check if you’re able to

    Safe mode:

    Please follow below steps:

    • Click on power button at left bottom corner, press and hold
      Shift key and click on Restart.
    • Click on Troubleshoot.
    • Click on Advanced options.
    • Click on Startup Settings.
    • Click on Restart.
    • When your PC starts up, you'll see a light blue screen with the Startup Settings menu. You can now choose an option using your keyboard (number keys or function keys). To start up in Safe Mode, press
      4 or F4. To start up in Safe Mode with networking, press
      5 or F5. To start up in Safe Mode with the Command Prompt, press
      6 or F6. If you change your mind and decide you don't want to boot into Safe Mode after all, hit
      Enter to boot normally.
    Let us know the status of the issue.

    Thanks.
