Most of the time, apps for MacOS work as expected. But their maybe times when an app doesn’t close (or gets stuck exiting) when you use the key combination [Command] + [Q].
When an app gets “stuck”, you can use a terminal command to bypass the normal quit command. However, this option should only be used as a last resort as it could result in damaged or lost data.
Here’s how:
- Open Terminal (Finder > Applications > Utilities > Terminal).
- At the command prompt, type: killall nameofapp
- Type EXIT when finished to close the terminal window.
- That’s it.
