Explanation
Taskkill is the Windows command-line utility used to terminate one or more running processes by process name or PID (e.g., taskkill /IM notepad.exe or taskkill /PID 1234). Shutdown (B) shuts down or restarts the entire computer. Tasklist (C) displays a list of running processes but cannot stop them. DEL (D) is a command to delete files, not processes.
