I have previously wrote a post on closing the applications that is not responding via the task manager. Aside from the GUI task manager, there is another way of closing applications in Vista via the console application.
To be able to do this, follow the steps below on closing the app:
1. Run the command prompt, by typing “cmd” in the Vista start search entry box
2. Allow access rights to run the console
3. Type the following: “taskkill /f /im theprocess.exe”. “theprocess.exe” should be the process name of the application
