FORCE QUITTING APPLICATIONS IN MAC

How to force quit an application in Mac This post will update you process to force quit an application if in case it is creating any issue or is freezed.

The process to force quit an application is by pressing command+option+escape which will take you to the window to select the application that you want to force quit. Using Force Quit with Finder : Unlike the applications force quit can never be used to quit the Finder.

On force quit window in front of Finder you will find an option of restart rather than force quit. So the idea is, never waste time searching option to quit finder, Mac will never allow you.
