On Chrome OS, Search+Esc brings up the task manager, but the "End Process" button is grayed out for the "Browser" process.



Chrome OS task manager



If Chrome is still responsive, one could navigate to chrome://inducebrowsercrashforrealz/.



But if Chrome is not responsive, is there another way to force quit it?
