    Because that’s better for the software, Linux however kills it outright when it doesn’t respond at all. Windows just… Waits. And you can’t really hardkill the processes from the task manager. Or at last my last knowledge is that.

      You can easily make a program unkillable (or to be more precise untermable) on Linux. Here’s a simple bash script that will do that.

      #!/bin/bash                                                                                                     function finish {
        while true
        do                                                              
          echo "Can't kill me."                                   
          sleep 10                                        
        done                                            
      }                                                                                                               trap finish EXIT                                        
      trap finish TERM                                        
      trap finish INT                                                                                                 
      
      while true                                              
      do                                                              
        echo "Still alive."                                     
        sleep 10                                        
      done
