Since its your worker thread, I hope you've the worker thread handle. Look at the place where the thread is getting created. Then you can terminate it by calling TerminateThread(). Regards, Jijo.

Try to avoid use of TerminateThread. You can use some condition to return from the worker thread function. May be you can introduce some flag and when the fag is set to false you can return from thread function. Whenever you want to terminate the thread just reset the flag variable. You can use Events also instead of flag.

This is bad advice which, unfortunately, is given way too often. See here[^] for details.
