How to fix error error-control-c-exit in Windows 11

Solution Steps

1. 1 If you intentionally pressed Ctrl+C, this error is expected and harmless. The program was stopped as you requested. To avoid it, simply don't press Ctrl+C unless you want to stop the process. If you're running a script, consider adding error handling to catch the interrupt and save progress.
2. 2 If the error appears without you pressing Ctrl+C, it might be caused by a program sending the signal. Check if the program has a setting to disable Ctrl+C handling. For example, in some command-line tools, you can use the '--no-interrupt' flag or similar.
3. 3 If you're running a batch file or script, you can modify it to ignore Ctrl+C by using the 'break off' command at the beginning. Open the script in Notepad, add 'break off' as the first line, and save it. This prevents the script from being interrupted by Ctrl+C.
4. 4 If the error occurs in a specific application, try running it in a different way. For example, if it's a game, try running it in windowed mode or disabling any overlay that might send Ctrl+C. Check the game's settings for an option to disable console commands.
5. 5 If the error is persistent and causes data loss, consider using a tool like 'AutoHotkey' to remap the Ctrl+C key to something else, but this is a workaround. Instead, try to identify the source of the signal by checking the Event Viewer: press Windows key + R, type 'eventvwr.msc', and press Enter. Look under Windows Logs → Application for errors related to the program.
