Comment (by stephane_gourichon):

 # A working solution

 Using taskkill without the /F option, works for mewith FFMpeg 4.0.1 64bit
 on Windows 10 when ffmpeg creates mp4 files:

 {{{
 taskkill /im ffmpeg.exe
 }}}

 Resulting MP4 files can be read with usual tools.

 # Opinion

 Also, I understand that FFMpeg developers consider this outside of the
 scope of FFMpeg but is rather a matter of using OS provided interprocess
 communication tools.
