      One time I was playing modded Skyrim when it froze/crashed at the loading screen

      So I summon task manager, it hides behind the frozen game. I alt+tab and start blind keying to Skyrim to end it, been here hundreds of times, but nothing happens and the Skyrim world music STARTS???!!!

      ALT+TAB to see TM and Skyrim both reporting non-responsive. Tab to Skyrim and press w, clearly hear character moving and reacting to my input

      Try again to end process via ALT+F4, No dice. Try via TM, still unresponsive

      I had to reboot my PC with a hard power button press that time and I still don’t fully understand what the FUCK happened

      That’s why you enable the end task option for when you right click on the icon in the taskbar.
