Reply to comment by shawnwildermuth in Rant: All single player games should have an easy way to quit to desktop and save as-is. Too many games require exiting to main menu and then quitting from there -- with an obligatory "ARE YOU SURE - YOUR PROGRESS WILL NOT BE SAVED" warning. Save the progress and quit -- it's not that hard. by BBorNot

This works? TIL

No there are literally some games that won't let you get out with an ALT+F4, CS:GO does this to me for example.

then you can just alt+tab, ctrl+shift+esc or ctrl+alt+del

Lol no, there are some games where the developer coded it so that the alt f4 shortcut doesn’t close the game.

Then go to task manager (alt+ctrl+del) select the gane and press "end task". Note, the game won't save beforehand so you need to save beforehand.
