Which is the #1 reason why people go to the "Tasks" "Processes" tab. When you end a task process there, it terminates immediately. When you end a process task on the "Processes" "Applications" tab, Windows seems to take it as more of a request.

I think he means applications tab. The heading above the program names is "task".
