I have an app that I can't shut down. I can still drag it around by click-holding on the top panel. It doesn't have the three dots on the left of the top panel, so I can't close it by clicking on the red dot. When I click on the icon on the bar at the bottom of the display, the menu pops up so I can choose Quit, but it won't shut the app down. I've tried several times.
Is there any other way I can shut the app down?
Mac mini 2018 or later
Try force quit: press Option-Command-Esc keys.
Try force quit from Activity Monitor: Launch Activity Monitor and use the search field to enter the name of the app, then choose it and click on the "x" from the top left of AM.

How do I shut down an app that won't quit?
