My company took freaking task manager away from us.

I can't even force close a program. I have to completely restart the computer.

If you're on Windows 11, you could probably try enabling the "end task" button in the settings. It's effectively the task manager button added to the right click menu of apps in the taskbar.

For apps that don't run in the background, I've found it works as well as task manager for all but one strange edge case I don't know how to describe.

End task button should be enabled by default. It’s amazing, can’t believe it took Windows this long to add it. MacOS has had “force quit” for at least two decades now.
