- Description
-
"Alt+F4" is gaming and computing shorthand for immediately closing the active program with the Alt and F4 keyboard keys. Used as a verb in casual online writing, it usually signals frustrated or decisive quitting rather than a calm technical shutdown. The expression is especially familiar to PC gamers, who may use it humorously when a game crashes, becomes irritating, or threatens to waste more time. In the sample, the reviewer wants to close the game and uninstall it after repeatedly recovering dropped items from the ocean.
- Example
-
— The boss deleted my save file. — Alt+F4 before it deletes your dignity too. — Too late; my dignity is already uninstalling.
A gamer reached for Alt+F4 so dramatically that the keyboard filed a workplace-harassment complaint.
After the 5th time I had to death run to the ocean 10-15 times to get my ♥♥♥♥ back, I was ready to Alt+F4 and uninstall.
