No way to get out of App

Hey guys,

Some of my apps won't give me a way to exit the app.

The reason is that, for apps like the reader or calendar, when I point towards the top right corner, the x for close doesn't appear. Neither does the last used app when I point towards the top left corner, or the task bar when I point towards the bottom of the screen. The only way to get out is by pushing the windows key or alt tab. 

I want my close x, task bar and last used app back - How can I?

Thanks!

What about Alt-F4 or Alt-Space C?

Depending on the app, is there a file--exit option?

Hi Tobi,

Alt+F4 will also completely stop all processes associated with an app, if you don't see the Close button in the title bar, you might don't have the latest update to Windows 8.1 and Windows RT 8.1.
