OK, let's go for "which terminates the Program's Execution".


Thanks.

How about...

"This 'ExitProcess' is a Function of the OS (in 'KERNEL32.DLL,
exactly), its job is to terminate the Program's Execution"

Welcome to Bozo's Circus...

There's probably other words that can be used in place of the
word clown. Something like stooge, goofy, goof, gumball.
Then there's a whole list of proper names like Scooby, Elmo, Bozo,
Scrappy, Fudd, Elmer, Gonzo, Radar, Kermit (practically any of
the muppets), Bert, Cookie Monster...

Don't limit yourself to that list. With some creative efforts, some
imagination...

Comparisons work great sometimes...

Slappy like a string.
Salty as the Atlantic.

The word, "clown", ended up as crusty as the deposits in your
drawers. You know what I mean, Vern?

I don't think "ExitProcess" terminates the program's execution.
The program has terminated itself by calling "ExitProcess".
"ExitProcess" is not the executioner but the mortician who has
to dispose the corpse. It is a suicide an not a murder.

Don't need all those words.

"ExitProcess terminates the program."

or

"Use ExitProcess to terminate a program and return control to the
starting application."
