Ending a Task
You can use Task Manager to forcibly terminate an RTSS process. However, you should always try to safely terminate processes whenever possible. When you forcibly terminate an RTSS process from the Task Manager, you have no control over when the process is terminated. The process might end in the middle of an operation that could result in a corruption of memory, which could in turn cause a Windows STOP.
IMPORTANT! It is recommended that you gracefully stop a RTSS process rather than kill it. When a process is killed, internal objects are not cleaned up correctly, which may result in an unstable subsystem state. You should only kill a process as a last resort.
To end a process:
- If Task Manager is not already running, from the Start menu, choose All Programs > IntervalZero RTX64 3.7 Runtime > Task Manager.
- Click on the process you want to end.
- Click the End Task button or right mouse click and select End Task from the context menu.
