Why each option
The Processes tab in Task Manager lists all running applications and background processes, allowing a user to identify an unresponsive application and terminate it.
The Startup tab manages applications that launch when Windows starts, but it does not allow managing currently running unresponsive applications.
The Performance tab displays system resource usage (CPU, memory, disk, network) but does not provide direct controls to terminate specific unresponsive applications.
The Application history tab shows resource usage statistics for Universal Windows Platform (UWP) apps over time, but it does not allow for terminating unresponsive applications in real-time.
The Processes tab in Windows Task Manager displays all currently running applications, background processes, and system processes. When an application becomes unresponsive, a user can locate it within this tab, select it, and use the 'End task' option to force-close it, resolving the unresponsiveness.
