The only option left for a common man if the program/window is not responding, is to shut down the computer, or restart it, but by doing this we loose many of our unsaved data. I used to face this problem a lot, because my computer was often infected with virus ,previously in the past, till one day I learnt the use of "Task Manager". If the program is not responding then, open your "Windows Task Manager" by clicking "Ctrl+Alt+Del" all three buttons simultaneously. In the Task Manager simply select the program , that is not responding, and click "End Task". This will close that program & your other programs will be saved. So simple----- see the screen shots below

Those who are computer expert are doing this regularly , to save time . It is worth closing the program, rather than waiting for it to respond. If the computer is virus infected , this "not responding" problem occurs, too often. See my post on 20 tips to save your computer
There are also other uses of Task Manager, like finding viruses & unauthorized users on your computer. All these in next post. Keep Reading :-)
