+====== Kill all Processes ======
+In order to batch-kill multiple instances of the same process, the ''taskkill'' command can be used using the ''/IM'' parameter:
+<code>
+taskkill /IM firefox.exe /F
+</code>
+where:
+  * ''/IM'' kills all processes,
+  * ''/F'' forcibly terminates the process
+The command can be useful after a long session of various programs that tend to crash and do not remove themselves from the process list. Typically, this includes browsers like Chrome or Firefox that launch one instance of the browser per tab due to isolation and then end up crashing such that killing each and every single process from the task manager would be inconvenient.
