Those who are used to use very Many applications at the same time I know for sure how long it takes to close all those applications before a restart or when they are no longer needed. Most of the time he gives up close each application and leaves the operating system to do this in their place (Force restart/shutdown), but this can "bulb" the applications in question and soon they will have to reinstalate (That's after they are uninstalled and they will be cleaned registry). To prevent this from happening, and to get rid of the "closing ritual" of the programs running on the system at a time, you need Close All.
Close All It is a small application, which does not require installation, and which, with a single click, closes absolutely all the programs running at that time.
How to use Close All?
- downloadati the archive using the link below, then extract the file .exe (It is advisable to keep an shortcut Its on the desktop, and the file saves it anywhere else).
Click-right on the application shortcut and select Properties.

In the Shortcut tab, add -x=”explorer.exe” in turn right Target (Otherwise you will close including explorer.exe When you use the Close All application) and click on OK.

If you do not want certain applications to close with the others, add them after the explorer.exe, separating them with "|". For example -x =”explorer.exe|winamp.exe|yahoomessenger.exe”.
Then "pull" the shortcut in Start Menu or Taskbar (If you use Windows 7) to make sure you have the application at hand all the time.

Note: Using Close All is as if the applications were closed using the X-right corner X. Close All Close including several instances of the same application. We recommend testing the application immediately after "settings" so as not to wake up with "surprises" (possible in case of inattention).
