CloseAll

This little tool lets you to close all running applications with just one click. It doesn’t use system resources because it only flashes a ‘close’ signal to all open windows on the desktop and then ceases. CloseAll is downloadable from http://www.ntwind.com/software/utilities/close-all.html.

Advanced Option :-

If you want to prevent certain applications from being to be closed by Close All, you can add a simple exclusion list to the CloseAll.exe command line.

1. Right-click the shortcut and choose Properties from the context menu:

2. Go to the Shortcut tab, Target and add -x="app-to-exclude.exe":

You can separate multiple values with “|” (pipe), example:

-x="explorer.exe|firefox.exe|msnmsgr.exe"

Click OK to save the shortcut properties. Remember, you'd better test it before using it!
