# Interrupting an application

There are two ways a debugged application can be interrupted: its execution can be paused, or it can be killed.

Two methods can be used to pause a debugged application:

- The pause command, located in both the debug menu and the project toolbar.
- Breakpoints, which make it easy to stop the application at a precise point.

To kill a debugged application, use the stop command, located in both the debug menu and the project toolbar.
