Shut Down All Running Windows Applications With A Hotkey


Close All Windows is a very simple utility that doesn’t require installation. No settings are stored in the Windows Registry or file system. Just follow the steps below to set it up on your computer.Windows allows you to quickly close down a particular type of window by holding down shifting and clicking the close button. For instance, if you want to close multiple Windows Explorer windows, instead of clicking the close button one by one, you can just hold down Shift key and click close to instantly close down all the Windows Explorer windows. However, you cannot close down different types of open windows using the default available options. For that, give Close All a try. It is a portable application for Windows that allows you to close all running programs with just a single click. More on Close All after the jump.

Close All doesn’t use a lot of system resources. It only flashes a “close” signal to all the open application on the desktop, and then ceases. To instantly close all the open applications, just run the application by clicking its executable file inside the source folder.


You can also add a hotkey to the application. To add a hotkey, first make a shortcut of Close All on your desktop. Then, open the shortcut’s properties and set a hotkey for the shortcut.


The application works on both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8.
