How do you stop an app that won't force quit on mac

Press these three keys together: Option, Command, and Esc (Escape). Or choose Force Quit from the Apple menu  in the upper-left corner of your screen. (This is similar to pressing Control-Alt-Delete on a PC.) Then select the app in the Force Quit window and click Force Quit.

Shortcut to Force Quit on Mac
Holding down the shortcut Option + Cmd + Esc brings up the menu seen above in macOS Catalina. You can also call up that menu by going to  - Force Quit. (The  remains in the top left-hand corner whenever you’re not in ‘full screen’ mode.) There, you can tap the application you want to close. Normally a failing application will be highlighted in red with (Not Responding) next to it. An alternative way to do this is holding down Ctl and tapping (i.e. right-clicking,) on the misbehaving app’s icon in the dock. This calls up a menu specifically for that application and Force Quit will be an option if it has failed.
But what if this does not work? Well that's why i made this video for you.

I did what you said and the application won't stop. Is there anything else I can do? I was downloading an FTP application and instead an app called Avast Security was downloaded into my computer. I'm not going to turn off the computer just incase its some kind of a harmful program that will screw up my computer next I resart.

Unfortunately Grammarly goes away for a few seconds and comes right back, no matter how many times I force quit it this way. I wonder why that is.
