    Does anybody know who has done the definitive White paper, book, book chapter on the not responing problem in Windows OS?

    No, but you may wish to review: "(Not Responding)" - What does it mean, and what do I do about it?

    Wondering about MS apps and how they might behave in the OS. Are there times when say Outlook would hang waiting on something before responding back to the Windows OS? Seems like by now Windows would have a menu or other setting to stop a not responding app.

    When an app appears to stop responding, press the  Control-Alt-Delete keys to open Task Manager, click on the Applications tab, then click on End Task.

    Yeah I've done that. Sometimes that doesn't work either. Thanks for you help.

    Come hear Mark Russinovich, the master of Windows troubleshooting, walk you through step by step how he has solved seemingly unsolvable system and application problems on Windows. (See: The Case of the Mysterious Hung App @ 40:00 mark)
