EndTask10 v1 💥

Instantly end frozen apps. Just hover and press CTRL + SHIFT + E


🪟 The problem

Windows 11 has a built-in "End Task" option in the taskbar right-click menu that forcefully kills hung applications. Windows 10 doesn't have this feature.

EndTask10 solves this. Just hover 🖱️ over any running app on the taskbar and press Ctrl+Shift+E ⌨️ — the app is terminated instantly.


🖱️ How to use

Hover mode (recommended):

  1. Hover over any running app on the taskbar (icon or thumbnail preview)
  2. Press Ctrl+Shift+E ⌨️ — app dies 💥

Right-click mode (alternative):

  1. Right-click any running app on the taskbar
  2. Press Ctrl+Shift+E ⌨️ within 8 seconds

Tip: Press Esc 🧹 to clear target
