How to Restart MacBook Pro with Microsoft Error Reporting

When your MacBook Pro encounters issues with Microsoft error reporting, forcing quitting all of an application's processes can usually resolve the problem. However, some applications have a large number of processes or strangely-named processes that may not be easily spotted in the Activity Monitor.

To force quit a process, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Activity Monitor by navigating to Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor.

2. In the Search bar, enter the name of the application that's been causing you problems, such as 'Safari' or 'Preview'.

3. Make sure the CPU tab is selected.

4. Read the warning dialogue and click 'Force Quit' if you're happy to proceed.

If your search returns any processes you're unsure about, researching this process online can usually turn up all the information you need to decide whether it's safe for you to hit that 'force quit' button or not.

Note that this may include processes that are not related to the application in question, so automatically force quitting every process in this list may have negative consequences for other applications or even the wider macOS system.

Alternatively, if the misbehaving app doesn't appear in the 'Force Quit' menu, you can try relaunching the app to see whether this easy fix has solved your problem. If the issue persists, you can try killing the process (or processes) associated with this application.

To do so:

1. Open a Finder window and navigate to Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor.

2. In the CPU tab, select the process (or processes) that are associated with the misbehaving app.

3. Click 'Force Quit' to stop the selected process.

Finally, restart your Mac by clicking the Apple logo in your menu bar and selecting 'Restart.' Your Mac can only force quit apps that it detects as being open, so misbehaving applications won't always appear in the 'Force Quit' menu, but since this is the easiest method it's always worth a shot.
