# allowsForceQuitKeyboardShortcuts

A Boolean value that indicates whether to allow force quitting apps during an assessment.

## Declaration

```swift
var allowsForceQuitKeyboardShortcuts: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion Users can force quit apps by pressing Shift-Option-Command-Escape to force quit the frontmost app. An assessment session disables force quit by default, but you can allow it by setting allowsForceQuitKeyboardShortcuts to true in the AEAssessmentConfiguration instance that you use to initialize a session. note: This property controls only the force quit keyboard shortcuts. Setting it to false does not remove the Force Quit item from the Apple menu. Use allowedAppleMenuItems to configure the allowed Apple menu items.
