Windows like Ctrl + Alt + Delete on MacOS App To Kill Tasks

On macOS, you can use the “Force Quit” feature to kill tasks in a similar way to the “Ctrl + Alt + Delete” combination on Windows. Here’s how:

  1. Click the Apple icon in the top-left corner of the screen to access the Apple menu.
  2. Select “Force Quit” from the drop-down menu, or press “Command + Option + Escape” to open the “Force Quit Applications” window.
  3. Select the task you want to kill from the list of running applications.
  4. Click the “Force Quit” button to kill the selected task.

Alternatively, you can also use the kill command in the Terminal to kill tasks. To do this, you’ll need to find the process ID (PID) of the task you want to kill. You can use the ps command to display a list of running processes and their PIDs:

ps -ef

Once you have the PID of the task you want to kill, you can use the following command to kill it:

kill <PID>

Replace <PID> with the actual PID of the task you want to kill.
