A task (such as skype) might hang and require me to end it or the process tree. In windows 7 this is absolutely no problem, in windows 8 I'm greeted with "error: access denied". Please FIX this! I can't even imagine how annoying this would be if I needed to remove malware or something! I'm banging my head against the wall here! I'm trying very hard to like Windows 8, truly I am. Apart from this I don't have many other complaints, but I NEED to be able to end troublesome tasks on an as needed basis without the operating system questioning me!
- I'm using an admin level account.
- I've tried using taskkill /PID ### /f and get access denied
- I've used taskkill /PID ### and I get success: sent termination signal... but it NEVER terminates!
- I've tried taskkill /IM pidgin.exe... Nothing!?
