How do I get a software that kill processes?

Wassup Meghanwharding,  that's a quite tricky question, but I think I can be able to help you with it to the best of my knowledge. 

It is not very necessary that you get a software to kill the processes since even command prompt can be able to kill the processes without necessarily using a software to do the process.

Just go to Start > All Programs > Accessories and open Command prompt. 

Use the administrative privileges mode and run tasklist command. It will show the list of running processes in your computer.

To kill a particular process, open the Taskkill command. For instance, if you need to kill Windows Explorer, go to;

Taskkill/Winexplorer.exe/F

F will be the command used to kill the process forcefully.

It is also possible to kill with an id, you will just do the following;

Type Taskkill/PID 2723 5470 2320

It should be able to kill the processes

I hope this solves your query 

Thanks
