Cannot exit a task once it begins

Hi there,

I've downloaded a dot probe task and ran it in Inquisit lab (On windows 10) and could not exit it once it began. I tried all combinations of keys and even if I press Alt+Ctrl+Del and select task manager it just goes back to the task. Basically the only way I can exit the task once I hit Run is to either let it finish on its own which takes a while or restart the computer. The same thing happens if I run the online version of the DPT- can anyone tell me why and how I can exit the task or change how you can close it?

Many thanks.

Any script can be terminated at any time by pressing CTRL+Q. You can skip through blocks by pressing CTRL+B. You'll find these commands and others detailed at https://www.millisecond.com/support/docs/v5/html/howto/howtokeyboardcommands.htm .
