Why doesn't SIGTERM Works On Windows [duplicate]

Question

Here is my code:

void signalHandler(int sigNum) {
    OutputDebugStringA("i'm terminated\n");
    exit(sigNum);
}

int APIENTRY _tWinMain(_In_ HINSTANCE hInstance,
    _In_opt_ HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
    _In_ LPTSTR    lpCmdLine,
    _In_ int       nCmdShow)
{
    signal(SIGTERM, signalHandler);
    while (1)
    {
        Sleep(100);
    }
    return 0;
}

when i terminated it via the windows taskmgr,that DebugString did't show up. is something wrong with my code?

Windows does not use signals in the same way that Unix systems do.

For example, it does not generate SIGTERM.
