How to Use the Windows Task Manager to Kill an Unresponsive Program
In this Microsoft Windows tutorial, we are going to learn how to use the Task Manager to kill an unresponsive program that has locked up.
Alan from Lafayette, Louisiana (a Platinum Member) asks: Every now and then, my Microsoft Access database locks up and stops responding. Sometimes, I’m able to close it with the close button, but other times, I have no option but to restart Windows. Is there another way that I can shut down Access without having to reboot my system?

how to repair windows 7
I'd never really thought about pinning the Task Manager to the taskbar. So good job Lord Rost. The bad news is no matter how often I hit Ctrl-Alt-Delete, Ctrl+Shit+Escape,, Windows+R, taskmgr, or type Type Task Manager from the menu options, or Command Prompt type taskmgar, or Start Search Task Manager, or right clicking on the Task bar and selecting Task Manager, or Windows S select Task Manager, or System Task Manager…. and no matter how hard I wish… this is still a Windows video and not a Access Learning Zone.cooooom video. Soooooo in order to get my access training kick I have to through the archives. Good news everybody there are plenty of them.
Yes! Unfortunately it happens sometimes ! For MS Access developers I'd add to use MSACCESS /decompile command every now and then. 😉
What about if the BE run and it doesn't have file running in task manager, we should restart the pc every time i need to modify it?
Awesome 👌
Thanks for the video, Richard! In addition to Task Manager, I use the "Ctrl-Pause/Break" key combo. If the issue is code related, this will usually cause the code to stop executing.
