Even after 38 years since the debut of its Windows desktop operating system, Microsoft continues to add new features to enhance the user experience. It is believed that the software giant is currently developing a feature that will allow Windows 11 users to terminate unresponsive applications with the press of a button. Soon, Windows 11's taskbar may become the final destination for stalled processes that may be slowing down other work.
Microsoft is reportedly developing a new feature that would allow Windows 11 users to terminate unresponsive applications directly from the taskbar. The current working title of this feature appears to be "End Task."
The most recent Dev channel version of Windows 11 includes a 'End Task' feature that can be activated or deactivated at the user's discretion. Toms Guide explained in its report that Windows 11 users must go to Settings and select the 'for developers' menu from the Privacy and Security option in order to activate this feature.
This feature may be included in Windows 11. Reportedly, it is currently concealed within the most recent Windows 11 Insider Preview build.The popular Twitter user @PhantomOfEarth posted a screenshot of how the 'End Task' button will appear on the taskbar once it is implemented.

To terminate stalled processes on Windows 11, users had to right-click the taskbar, enter the taskbar settings, and then select which of the running processes needed to be terminated forcibly. This procedure was lengthy and time-consuming, so Microsoft may now be considering a one-click solution to replace it.
Microsoft introduced Windows in 1985. Under the leadership of its current CEO, Satya Nadella, the software titan is adapting its computer operating system to the evolving requirements of its users.
Microsoft is expected to release a multitude of new Windows features in the coming months, ranging from control over default app settings to a new publicly available API and a new Settings deep link URI.
