How to kill process on Remote Desktop Connection? [closed]

I am working remotely on a Windows Server via Remote Desktop Connection and some process has hung the server. I looked up how to bring up the Task Manager remote (equivalent of locally doing CTRL+ALT+DEL) and I found CTRL+ALT+END and it doesn't seem to work.

I tried logging off and logging back on and the system is still up (tried earlier seeing the properties of My Comptuer, FYI).

Does anyone know how I can escape this 'hindrance' and star fresh?!?

Start the task manager with e.g right-clicking in the bottom right or just start it manually with taskmgr in "execute"
