Hello kanako288,
If the Migration Assistant is no longer responding, you may need to force close it using either of the processes below:
Press these three keys together: Option (or Alt), Command, Esc (Escape). Or choose Force Quit from the Apple menu in the corner of your screen.
You can also find those steps in this resource: How to force an app to quit on your Mac - Apple Support
If your Mac is completely unresponsive, you may need to turn it off by holding down the power button: Shut down or restart your Mac - Apple Support
Should you still experience difficulties with Migration Assistant, are you attempting to migrate your data from an external drive or another computer?
Let us know, and we'll keep moving forward based on that information.
