Yes yes, I REALLY want to terminate that process and I am very sure about it too, ty.
I've honestly not had this problem on windows since Windows 8.

btw funny story since many comments mention NFS/CIFS:
I have a share mounted at /smb and the server sometimes just dies so when I want to unmount it I run umount /smb but my shell (zsh) hangs after typing umount /sm and the b doesn't even show
I guess zsh does a kind of stat() on everything you type but bash came to save the day

KDE now too
KDE can murder windows instantly (you have to set a shortcut), or you can also just send SIGKILL to the process
It even kills threads currently executing a system call! The brutality!
Never even returned to userspace…
ps aux | grep . kill
killall works great for this.
At that point you can just hard restart as well. Most motherboards accept 10 to 15 seconds of power button as "my OS is fucked please help" and restart the machine for you.
They also accept pulling the power cord out as "oh no" and shutdown for you!
The most I work with restart, but I think you can configure it in the bios.
killall just kills all instances of a program, not everything.
and also, long pressing the power button should just shut it down, no?
kill -9 $(pidof )
