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
New Vegas does the same thing, hiding Task Manager behind itself when it crashes. I found a workaround by using Ctrl+Alt+Del, clicking to make the cursor appear, and then pressing the Windows key which makes the taskbar appear. Then the game window can be closed from the taskbar.

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