Any way to exit the game without turning off computer?

Recommended Posts

Ok so whenever i get stuck at "Loading.." when joining a server, I have to exit Arma2 itself because it wont let me Abort. However, the mouse cursor doesnt appear when at the "loading", so the only way i know of is pressing the power button on my keyboard, which shuts off my computer. It is annoying.

Any sort of button i can press? Any key combo like Alt+F2 or something crazy like that??? Without shutting down my PC?

Try Ctrl-alt-del a couple times.

Sometimes I do Ctrl-Esc.

Of course! just alt+tab and right click the program and exit out that way! Or ctrl+alt+delete! both work! It will take a few seconds though but it will get the job done!

Why does it seem like you don't really know how to use a computer...

Alt+f4 works for some people. It's the hotkey to close the active window.

Ctrl+alt+del. Select the task manager. Can be used to end Arma2.

Pro tip: programs will close faster if you find it in processes, right click and select "End Process Tree" (or whatever the process tree option is)

I usually just used my computer for school work and youtube before DayZ (tiwtter and facebook work fine on my phone). Arma 2 was the first PC game i ahve ever bought, since i have an xbox and my family PC is complete shit. So you're kinda right..

Alt + F4 may work, but I do Alt + Tab and then right click it on my taskbar and press close window. Hope this helps!

Edit:

I do this if close window does not work. Just open up task manager through the taskbar or Ctrl + Alt + Delete
