meshcarver 12 Posted July 16, 2014 Hi guys, is it ok to ALT + F4 to kill ARMA 3 when in the editor testing models etc..? I only ask as I have to load it up and unload it step by step so many times during testing that it must kill an hour from what little dev time I can muster... Does it harm my PC or could it harm the installation of ARMA 3 for example..? Is it bad practice etc? Cheers, Marc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tom_48_97 523 Posted July 16, 2014 Does it harm my PC or could it harm the installation of ARMA 3 for example..? Is it bad practice etc?Zooloo75 is right. As information, ALT+F4 sends an exit request to the application to close itself, all closing/shutdown events from it are run ;). This is not as brutal as a "taskkill", just avoid to do this during file write operations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
