I know there is a key combination to press if a program is stuck in a loop. Can't for the life of me remember what it is.

    If your keyboard, like many of them now, has no Pause/Break key then get the OnScreen Keyboard up before you run any test code [C:\Windows\System32\osk.exe].  Then you can use its Ctrl-Pause combination [I always have to do this twice to stop code] by clicking on Ctrl then clicking on Pause.
