Windows XKill to terminate hanged or not responding programs in windows

We have talked about How to kill hanged program from command line [ Windows ] which requires some skills on using the command line and understanding the commands. In short some people might not be very comfortable with CLI utility and Here comes an alternative GUI program, Windows XKill which is comparable to XKill program I have seen in Linux.

Widows XKill is confgured to get activated when you hit ALT + CTRL + BACKSPACE together. This shows up a skull icon which you can just drop it on any application which you see is frozen and not responding for a long time. This is definetly faster than using Task manager. Thanks Ghacks
