We can kill a process from GUI using Task manager. If you want to do the same from command line., then taskkill is the command you are looking for. This command has got options to kill a task/process either by using the process id or by the image file name.
Kill a process using image name:
We can kill all the processes running a specific executable using the below command.
taskkill /IM executablename
Example:
Kill all processes running mspaint.exe:
c:>taskkill /IM mspaint.exe SUCCESS: Sent termination signal to the process "mspaint.exe" with PID 1972.
Kill a process forcibly
In some cases, we need to forcibly kill applications. For example, if we try to to kill Internet explorer with multiple tabs open, tasklist command would ask the user for confirmation. We would need to add /F flag to kill IE without asking for any user confirmation.
taskkill /F /IM iexplore.exe
/F : to forcibly kill the process. If not used, in the above case it will prompt the user if the opened pages in tabs need to be saved.
To kill Windows explorer, the following command would work
C:>taskkill /F /IM explorer.exe SUCCESS: The process "explorer.exe" with PID 2432 has been terminated.
The above command would make all GUI windows disappear. You can restart explorer by running ‘explorer’ from cmd.
C:>explorer
Not using /F option, would send a terminate signal. In Windows 7, this throws up a shutdown dialog to the user.
C:>taskkill /IM explorer.exe SUCCESS: Sent termination signal to the process "explorer.exe" with PID 2432. C:>
Kill a process with process id:
We can use below command to kill a process using process id(pid).
taskkill /PID processId
Example:
Kill a process with pid 1234.
taskkill /PID 1234
Kill processes consuming high amount of memory
taskkill /FI "memusage gt value"
For example, to kill processes consuming more than 100 MB memory, we can run the below command
taskkill /FI "memusage gt 102400"
More examples
Sometimes applications get into hung state when they are overloaded or if the system is running with low available memory. When we can’t get the application to usable state, and closing the application does not work, what we usually tend to do is kill the task/process. This can be simply done using taskkill command.
To kill Chrome browser from CMD
Taskkill /F /IM Chrome.exe
Kill Chromedirver from command line
Taskkill /F /IM Chromedriver.exe
To kill firefox browser application
taskkill /F /IM firefox.exe
To kill MS Word application(Don’t do this if you haven’t saved your work)
taskkill /F /IM WinWord.exe
Sometimes, the command window itself might not be responding. You can open a new command window and kill all the command windows
taskkill /F /IM cmd.exe
This even kills the current command window from which you have triggered the command.
Sometimes when an application in Windows hangs, freezes and stops responding the only way to terminate it is to kill from the command-line.
The taskkill command in Windows serves for terminating tasks by name or by process id (PID).
In this note i am showing how to find and kill a process by its name or by PID and how to identify a process by the listening port.
I am also showing how to troubleshoot “The process could not be terminated” and “Access denied” errors.
Cool Tip: Get the return code from the last command or application! Read more →
List all Windows processes and find the full name of a process to kill (case insensitive):
C:> tasklist | findstr /I process_name
Kill the process by name:
C:> taskkill /IM process_name.exe
Kill Process by PID
List all Windows processes and find the PID of a process to kill (case insensitive):
C:> tasklist | findstr /I process_name
Kill the process by PID:
C:> taskkill /PID process_id
Kill Process by Port
List all Windows processes listening on TCP and UDP ports and find the PID of a process running on a specific port:
C:> netstat -ano | findstr :port
Find the name of a process by its PID:
C:> tasklist /FI "pid eq process_id"
Kill the process by name or by PID:
C:> taskkill /IM process_name.exe - or - C:> taskkill /PID process_id
Cool Tip: Windows grep command equivalent in CMD and PowerShell! Read more →
Troubleshooting
Kill the process forcefully in case of the following error:
ERROR: The process with PID XXX could not be terminated.
Reason: This process can only be terminated forcefully (with /F option).
C:> taskkill /F /IM process_name.exe - or - C:> taskkill /F /PID process_id
If you get an “Access is denied” error, you should open the command prompt as an administrator:
ERROR: The process with PID XXX could not be terminated.
Reason: Access is denied
To run the CMD as an administrator, press ⊞ Win keybutton to open the start menu, type in cmd to search for the command prompt and press Ctrl + Shift + Enter to launch it as administrator.

Управлять процессами в Windows можно не только через UI («Менеджер задач»), но и через командную строку. К тому же командная строка предоставляет больше контроля над данными действиями.
Для вывода списка запущенных процессов нужно ввести команду:
>tasklist
Image Name PID Session Name Session# Mem Usage ========================= ======== ================ =========== ============ System Idle Process 0 Services 0 4 K System 4 Services 0 4 124 K smss.exe 348 Services 0 336 K csrss.exe 480 Services 0 2 780 K wininit.exe 552 Services 0 572 K csrss.exe 568 Console 1 9 260 K winlogon.exe 616 Console 1 2 736 K services.exe 640 Services 0 9 284 K lsass.exe 660 Services 0 16 464 K explorer.exe 27736 Console 1 125 660 K
«Убить» процесс можно как по его имени, так и по PID:
>Taskkill /IM explorer.exe /F
>Taskkill /PID 27736 /F
Флаг /F указывает, что завершить процесс нужно принудительно. Без данного флага, в некоторых случаях, процесс может не «убиться» (к примеру, это актуально как раз для процесса explorer.exe).

Last Updated December 22, 2022
A log of users are unclear about how to kill process CMD/PowerShell in Windows 10/11. Don’t worry. This post of MiniTool walks you through detailed steps on the PowerShell/CMD kill process operations.
Why You Need to Use Windows PowerShell/CMD Kill Process
As you know, the operating system will create a process for the executable file when you start running an app. This process contains the program code and its current activity. In addition, you can find the Process Identifier (PID) assigned by Windows to identify each process.
Sometimes you have to kill a process if an app is not responding or behaves unexpectedly, system resources are much occupied, or other reasons. When it comes to killing a process, most people may open Task Manager by pressing Ctrl + Shift + Esc keys and then right-click the Process and select End task.
Tip: Also, you can navigate to the Details tab in Task Manager to check the Process ID (PID), Status, CPU, User name, and Memory usage.
Sometimes, however, Task Manager may run into various issues such as “end task not working”, “Task Manager not responding”, “Task Manager has been disabled by your administrator”, and so on. In this case, you can kill process CMD/PowerShell. How to make CMD kill process IN Windows 10/11? Let’s keep reading.
How to Kill Process CMD/PowerShell in Windows 10/11
This part will show you how to kill process Windows command line/PowerShell. You can choose one according to your preference.
# 1. CMD Kill Process
How to let CMD kill process in Windows 10/11? Here you need to use the taskkill command that allows a user to kill a task from a Windows command line by PID or image name. This command works like the “End task” option in Task Manager.
Here’s how to kill task CMD via the taskkill command. Since some apps may run as administrators, you need to open an elevated Command Prompt window to kill them. For that:
Step 1. Type cmd in the Search box, and then right-click the Command Prompt window and select Run as administrator. Then click on Yes in the UAC window to confirm the admin access.
Step 2. In the elevated command prompt window, type the following command and hit Enter to show all the currently running processes in your system.
tasklist | more
Step 3. To kill a process by its PID, run the following command. Here we take PID 1704 for example.
taskkill /F /PID pid_number
If you want to kill task CMD by its name, run the following command. For example, to kill the YourPhone.exe process:
taskkill /IM «process name» /F
If you want to kill multiple processes by their name simultaneously, run the following command:
taskkill /IM Process Name /IM Process Name /F
If you want to kill multiple processes by their PID simultaneously, run the following command:
taskkill /PID PID /PID PID /F
If you want to learn more taskkill commands, you also can run the taskkill /? Command.
# 2. PowerShell Kill Process
In addition, you can make Windows kill process command line via PowerShell. Here’s how to do that:
Step 1. Type PowerShell in the Search box, and then right-click the Windows PowerShell app and select Run as administrator. Then click on Yes to confirm that.
Step 2. In the elevated PowerShell window, type the following command and hit Enter to show all the running processes on your system.
Get-Process
Step 3. If you want to kill a process by its name, run the following command.
Stop-Process -Name «ProcessName» -Force
If you want to kill a process by its PID, run the following command.
Stop-Process -ID PID -Force

- 5 How to Kill Any Window-related Process Directly with just Two Clicks
For the most part, Windows 10 programs function just fine, but when one misbehaves it’s often necessary to kill its process. At times, apps can refuse to close, get stuck on a blank screen, or suddenly consume a lot of system resources. Terminating the task will force it to close and free up your system for normal functioning.
Identifying and killing a process of single windows and background apps
There are various ways to kill a process, but all of them make use of an application’s PID (Process ID), a unique identifier that ensures only the correct one is terminated. However, it’s worth noting that terminating a specific application process can still have knock-on effects on the rest of the program’s functions if they rely on it.
The most common way in Windows to terminate a process is through Task Manager. But today we’ll also be covering how to kill a process with PowerShell, how use the taskkill command in Command Prompt, how to find a process ID with Process Explorer (Microsofts ooptional advanced Task Manager) and using a two-click-method via a task bar button.
Different methods to kill a process for different needs
Some programs run several processes at once which means if you want to terminate the application completely you will have to kill all those processes. And there are cases where you will have a program window or system dialog but cannot identify the underlying process. In our tutorial you will find solutions for all of those issues.
How to Kill a Process in Windows 10 with Task Manager
Task Manager is the bread and butter of Windows 10 task killers, providing a simple interface with all the information users need to make informed decisions about which applications they should close. Accessing it is as easy as pressing “Ctrl + Shift + Esc”.
- View more details
After opening Task Manager with “Ctrl + Shift + Esc”, press the “More details” button in the bottom left to view more information.
- Select the process you want to kill and click “End task”
You can also press the “Delete” key instead to save some time.
- OR: Find an individual process and terminate it
Click the “Details” tab, find your process, and click “End Task” or press “Delete”.
How to Kill a Process with the Taskkill Command
If task manager isn’t an option because you’re using a Windows server install or it’s blocked by your administrator, you can achieve similar results through the use of the taskkill command in Command Prompt.
- Open Command Prompt
Press the Windows key and type “Command Prompt”, then choose “Run as administrator”.
- Run the tasklist command
You can get a quick readout of all the currently running processes, much like Task Manager, by typing
tasklist | moreand pressing “Enter”
- Run the taskkill command to kill the process
Type
taskkill /F /PID x, wherexis replaced by your process’ PID.
- OR: Use taskkill to kill a process by its name
If you know the name of the process’ .exe file, you can optionally use that to kill the task instead:
taskkill /IM "yourprocess.exe" /F
How to Terminate a Process with PowerShell
Alternatively, those familiar with PowerShell can use it kill tasks instead. This has the advantage of quite intuitive commands.
- Open PowerShell as an admin
Press “Windows + X” to open the fly-out menu, then click “Windows PowerShell (Administrator)”.
- Get a list of processes
In PowerShell, type
Get-Processto have it return a list of all of the currently running processes on your PC and their PID.
- Use PowerShell stop process to kill the task
To stop the process, type the following, substituting the x for the relevant PID:
Stop-Process -ID x -Force
- OR: Kill process by name in PowerShell
As with command prompt, you can also kill one or more processes at once in PowerShell by their name. This time, however, you’ll need its system name rather than its .exe file. For example:
Stop-Process -Name "YourPhone" -Force
How to Identify the Process of any Open System Dialog or Program Window with Process Explorer
As you’ve likely realized by now, scrolling through a giant list to get the name or PID of an application can be an annoyance. To remedy this, you can use Microsoft’s Process Explorer.
- Download Process Explorer
Head to Microsoft’s Process Explorer documentation and press the “Download Process Explorer” button to download the application.
- Run Process Explorer
Head to the folder you downloaded the application to and double-click “Procexp64.exe” or “proxexp.exe” depending on whether your system is 64 or 32-bit.
- Kill a process with Process Explorer
You can use Process Explorer much like Task manager by clicking the application and pressing the ‘x’ button in the top toolbar to stop it.
- Optional: Use the identification crosshair
Alternatively, if you don’t know the name of the application or its process, click the target button in the top toolbar.
- Drag the target to the process you want to identify
The process will then be automatically selected in the list and you can stop it as normal.
Though all of the above methods work just fine, if you find yourself having to kill tasks regularly they still aren’t ideal. For such use cases, we recommend Grizzly Bear’s “Kill”, a tiny 205KB app that you can pin to your taskbar to kill window process with two clicks.
- Download Kill
Go to the dcmembers site and download the Kill.exe freeware by pressing the big blue “Download” button.
- Pin Kill.exe to the taskbar
In the kill folder, right-click “Kill.exe” and select “Pin to taskbar”.
- Kill any window process with Kill.exe
To kill a process, simply click the button on your taskbar and then click on the application window.

Whether you’re dealing with a slow computer or just noticed a bunch of bloatware hogging all resources, killing the offending processes in Windows is the best method to deal with the problem.
Not only does this boost the performance of your PC, but it can also help stave off spyware and viruses. And before you ask: no, it’s not hard to kill a process in Windows 10. We’ll go over all the different ways you can do this safely and easily.
Each running application in Windows is composed of one or more “processes.” These processes are responsible for writing things to memory, reacting to user input, and performing all the actual work behind a computer program.
The thing is, not all processes are represented by an active window on your desktop. Windows system processes, for example, run quietly in the background without any explicit permission from the user.
And this is where the problem arises. Many unwanted applications like viruses or bloatware also run as hidden processes in the background, consuming resources and slowing down your computer. You can safely shut down even some Windows processes without impacting your computer.
Killing Unnecessary Processes With the Task Manager
The Windows Task Manager is the default tool for managing programs and processes on your computer. You can use it to view, analyze, or even terminate running applications and processes.
Its only drawback is its limited permissions. The Task Manager cannot kill protected processes (including system tasks and some viruses). In addition, it can be tedious to manually select and terminate all the target processes each time you run your computer.
- To open the Task Manager, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete on your keyboard. Another way is to right-click anywhere on the Taskbar and select it from the menu that opens up.
- By default, Task Manager opens in a streamlined view that displays only the names of the running apps themselves. Select More details to see all the processes.
- Now you can see all the tasks running on your computer. They are split into the visible Apps and the invisible Background processes. You can see the CPU, Memory, Disk, and Network usage of each process on the right. Select any of the categories to sort the processes by resource usage.
- Look for the processes unrelated to any running app or useful services, and select them.
- You can also switch to the Details tab to get a more detailed overview of the processes. By looking at the User name, you can quickly identify which processes belong to the system.
- In either of these tabs, select the End task button at the bottom right to kill the process. The task will be terminated and disappear from the list.
Using Command Prompt to Kill a Process in Windows
If you prefer command-line tools, then you can kill a process using CMD too. The Command Prompt gives access to many useful utilities, including one called Taskkill.
As the name suggests, you can use Taskkill to kill any running task or process. If you run CMD as an administrator, you can even kill protected tasks.
- To use Taskkill, first open the Command Prompt. Type cmd in the search box and click on Run as administrator in the right-hand pane.
- Before you can use Taskkill, you need to know either the name or PID of the task in question. Enter tasklist to get a list of all the running processes on your computer.
- Now, you can use the Taskkill command in two ways. To use the PID, type taskkill /F /PID x, where x is the PID of the process you want to kill. You’ll be notified if the operation is successful.
- If you want to enter the name instead, use taskkill /IM “x” /F, where x is the name of the process in question.
It may seem counter-intuitive to use a command-line tool when the Task Manager can do the same without any need for typed commands. This is because we have only touched upon the most basic way to use Taskkill. There are many other ways to filter the processes without having to look through them manually.
PowerShell
CMD is not the only method to kill Windows processes with typed commands. Powershell is Windows’ built-in scripting language that offers many similar capabilities. In a way, Powershell is just a more verbose form of the Command Prompt.
The power of Powershell comes from its ability to create scripts of commands, which Windows can execute at leisure. This allows you to automate complex tasks on Windows.
- First, let us open PowerShell. Type PowerShell in the search bar and click on Run as administrator.
- The PowerShell window will open up. It looks remarkably similar to the Command Prompt, just with a different background color.
- Enter Get-Process to obtain a list of all the running processes on your computer.
- To end a process, you can use either the PID or the name. For example, type Stop-Process -ID x -Force, where x is the PID to end any process.
- Using the command does not produce any acknowledgment from the program, making it seem that nothing has happened. But that is its normal behavior for a successful operation. If you enter the wrong name, for example, you get an error message.
- Use the command Stop-Process -Name “x” -Force, where x is the name of the process, to kill the process. This time, the command is successful.
If PowerShell seems underwhelming to you, it’s because we are using it like cmd. PowerShell is meant to create autonomous scripts that perform complex tasks independently, without any real-time feedback or input. While you can use it this way, the Command Prompt is frankly better at it.
Using KillProcess
So far, we have looked at tools and utilities present in your computer by default. While these certainly can get the job done, they lack some useful features present in third-party tools.
KillProcess is one such advanced task managing program. In addition to its ability to kill protected system processes, it also allows for creating a “Kill List”. Processes added to this list are automatically killed as soon as they enter active memory. This can be a great method to permanently shut down pesky bloatware.
- To begin, download KillProcess from the official website. There is both an installer and a portable version that you can use without any installation.
- Upon running the app, you will be greeted with a task manager-like window. All the running processes on your computer are displayed in a list, along with their descriptions and memory usage.
- Right-click on the process you want to kill, and select Add to List.
- Processes added to the kill list show up with a green tick icon. To kill the processes of the list, click on the dynamite button on the bottom left.
The best thing about this approach is that you don’t have to kill each process one by one. This Kill List remains saved even after you exit the program, so you only need to run KillProcess itself to terminate all unwanted processes at once.
Many Ways to Kill a Process in Windows 10
There are multiple ways to kill a process in Windows 10. The most straightforward method is to use the Task Manager. It allows you to view and terminate processes in an easy-to-understand GUI format.
In case the Task Manager cannot kill the process, you need to use something more powerful. You can either try a third-party tool like KillProcess or use command-line tools to kill the protected process.
To permanently shut down unnecessary background processes, prevent them from starting up automatically, or add them to KillProcess’ kill list.
When you start an app, the operating system creates a process for an executable file of the app. It contains the program code and its current activity. Windows assigns a special number known as Process Identifier (PID) which is unique for every process. There are a number of reasons you might want to kill a process, and different methods you can use to terminate it. Here is how it can be done.
If an app stops responding, consumes a lot of system resources or behaves unexpectedly and doesn’t allow you to quit it, you might want to kill its process to forcefully close the app. Traditionally, Windows allowed using Task Manager and the command prompt for these tasks. In addition to these methods, you can use PowerShell. Here is how.
To kill a process in Windows 10, do the following.
- Open Task Manager.
- Click on «More details» in the bottom right corner to enter Full view mode.
- Select the desired app in the app list.
- Click on the End task button or hit the Del key on the keyboard.
You are done.
This is Task Manager’s most well known method.
Note: The same can be done from the Details tab. It is a special tab which lists process names instead of app names. There you can select a process in the list and either click on the End process button or hit the Del key. 
Using the End Task button means Windows first tries to see for a certain timeout if the process has really stopped responding, and attempts to collect a crash or memory dump of the process. It then terminates the app.
Tip: We highly recommend you read the article How to end a process quickly with Task Manager in Windows 10 to learn all Task Manager tricks. Also, you can get the classic Task Manager app in Windows 10 to end processes or tasks.
Another classic method to close a process is the console tool taskill. It comes bundled with modern versions of Windows.
Kill a process using Taskkill
Note: Some processes are running as Administrator (elevated). In order to kill them, you need to open an elevated command prompt instance.
- Open the command prompt as the current user or as Administrator.
- Type tasklist to see the list of running processes and their PIDs. Since the list might be very long, you can use a pipe character with the more command.
tasklist | more
- To kill a process by its PID, type the command:
taskkill /F /PID pid_number
- To kill a process by its name, type the command
taskkill /IM "process name" /F
For example, to kill a process by its PID:
taskkill /F /PID 1242
To kill a process by its name:
taskkill /IM "notepad.exe" /F
Taskkill supports many useful options which you can use to terminate apps. You can learn them by running it as follows: taskkill /?. Using taskkill, you can close all not responding tasks at once in Windows 10.
Kill a process using PowerShell
Note: To kill a process which runs elevated, you need to open PowerShell as Administrator.
- Open PowerShell. If required, run it as Administrator.
- Type the command
Get-Processto see the list of running processes. - To kill a process by its name, execute the following cmdlet:
Stop-Process -Name "ProcessName" -Force
- To kill a process by its PID, run the command:
Stop-Process -ID PID -Force
Examples:
This command will close the notepad.exe process.
Stop-Process -Name "Notepad" -Force
The next command will close a process with PID 2137.
Stop-Process -ID 2137 -Force

To kill processes on your computer, you would normally use the Windows Task Manager. The Windows Task Manager is a program designed to help you manage the processes running on your computer. Although the Task Manager is sufficient for most circumstances, it is designed to prevent users from ending processes that it believes are critical which can result in some errors when you try to kill those processes using it. Additionally, some frozen programs may not terminate if you attempt to kill them from Task Manager. When you encounter problems such as these, you’re not out of options. A program called Command Prompt may be able to kill processes that Task Manager can’t. If you want to kill a process on your computer using Command Prompt, read on!
-
1
Start Task Manager. Press the Ctrl key, the ⇧ Shift key, and the Esc key in consecutive order at the same time to open Task Manager.
-
2
View the names of the running processes and identify the problematic process. Click the Processes tab in Task Manager and find the name of the process that you want to kill.
- Windows 8/8.1 users should click the Details tab.
- If a program that is currently running on your screen is frozen and you want to kill it, an easy way to find its name is to click the Applications tab (Processes tab in Windows 8/8.1), right click the window’s name, then click Go to process (Go to details in Windows 8/8.1).
- If the Task Manager window does not display any tabs, double-click in the indicated space in the window to show them.

Обычно «убить» процесс в Windows 10 можно с помощью диспетчера задач, но в некоторых случаях эта возможность блокируется вирусами или некоторыми программами. Однако, в этих случаях можно попробовать закрыть его через командную строку или PowerShell.
Используя командную строку
Работа диспетчера задач может быть реализована с помощью инструментов командной строки: Tasklist (список задач) и Taskkill (утилита Taskkill).
- Во-первых, нам нужно найти идентификатор процесса с помощью Tasklist
- Во-вторых, мы убиваем программу, используя Taskskill.
Откройте командную строку с правами администратора, введя cmd в строке Выполнить (Win + R) и нажав Shift + Enter.
Для просмотра процессов введите следующую команду и нажмите Enter:
Taskview /fo table
Обратите внимание на идентификатор процесса, указанный в колонке Process ID.
Вы можете также прибить программу, используя точное имя.
Чтобы убить процесс по его имени, введите команду:
TASKKILL /IM "process name" /F
Так для Chrome у программы будет имя chrome.exe.
Введите команду и нажмите Enter, чтобы убить Chrome.
Taskkill /IM chrome.exe /F
Ключ /F используется для принудительной остановки процесса.
Чтобы убить процесс по его PID, введите команду:
TASKKILL /F /PID pid_number
Чтобы убить несколько процессов одновременно, запустите вышеприведенную команду с PID всех процессов через пробел.
TASKKILL /PID 2536 /PID 3316 /F
Используя PowerShell
Чтобы просмотреть список запущенных процессов, выполните следующую команду:
Get-Process
Чтобы убить процесс, используя его имя, выполните следующую команду:
Stop-Process -Name "ProcessName" -Force
Чтобы убить процесс, используя его PID, выполните следующую команду:
Stop-Process -ID PID -Force
