Can't Shutdown Nero when it hangs

Nero 6 works okay pretty much of the time but occassionally it hangs
up. When I then try to close the program using the task manager, it
doesn't work. Nothing closes it unless I reboot. Is there a program
out there that forces any program to close, even if Task Manger can't
do it? Thanks.

I find that threatening the computer with a 24-ounce claw hammer
occasionally keeps it behaving well.

 

EndItAll, that's a program, not a suggestion.

IMHO Nero is a totally incomprehensible and illogical bloated
pig. The only useful things are a couple of the utilities in the
Toolkit, like if you want to find out who REALLY made your CD-R
(not that there aren't any other programs - free - that will let
you do it as well...).

I have paid for, use and recommend CDRWin from
www.goldenhawk.com

If you want to stick with Nero, try this program to help with
the hangs:

I use a fairly old version, but I believe it is still shareware
with a few minor functions disabled unless you register.

There are a few things it will sometimes not be able to kill
(mostly to do with Windows printing - what a joy THAT is) but
you'll just have to find out for yourself.

 

Thanks to all!
